16 oz. can from The Dojo. Hazy, opaque pour under a foamy head. Tropical fruit nose, followed by a big dose of pine resin. Grapefruit is also there. Then the taste is big on grapefruit juice. Maybe bigger on grapefruit than the beer that should be the bulk of the taste. Kind of sits in me more like a grapefruit radler that a slightly strong IPA. But it's quite all right.

Can from the Dojo.
Gold helles pour, with a spongy head. The nose starts with some toasty malt, then the smoke of an Edam cheese takes over. A nice smoked cheese and ham taste. Stands up alongside any of the Banberg beers, except perhaps for needing a bit more wood.

Can, thanks for sharing. Pours a near clear orange gold with a white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Aroma has melon and dank citrus with a bit of melon and sweet grains supporting. Flavor has melon and citrus with a touch of mango and some sweet grains backing.

16 oz. can from the Dojo. Bright clean golden pour, with a foamy head. Crisp, bready and yeasty nose, standard for the style. We're going to drag in that word "crisp," which comes to mind first. But there's also some yeasty or banana-y esters. Sharp pang of some German hop.

16 oz. can. Promised spices do turn up under the tab. Pours a light brown alt color, with an ecru head. Nose is like the usual pumpkin pie spice. Taste has some spice to it, too. But the mouthfeel is kind of watery. Spice is the only thing holding it up, I think. Needs some malt, although there is some hop bitterness aroind the edge.

16 oz. can from the Dojo. Pours a slightly haze gold color while kicking up a big head, which settles to some suds. Big smell of APA hop loads, even what I call the "cat pee" smell of Mosaic and Amarillo. Hard to say what additional kick any Cryo powdered hop offers. Taste features the resin of the hops advertised, little actual bitterness or fruit. Light malts keeps the hop to the forefront.

16 oz. can from the Dojo. Juicy hop nose right in the pour, then some catty American hop like Citra. Clear filtered gold pour, under a sudsy head. Taste is hoppy, with a bit of American and those exotic Pacific hops. Well balanced mix with light malts, too. Like a lawnmower beer with an extra hop kick.
