On tap at brewery. Pours near black with a beige head. Aroma has rye malts and pine. Flavour is full of dark, spicy rye malts and piney hops. Fantastic rye malts and hop expression; could be more aggressive.

On tap at brewery. Pours hazy pale yellow with a white head. Aroma is a bit wheaty with pale stonefruit and a touch of orange. Flavour is much the same. It's fine for a weak fruited wheat ale.

On tap at TPK, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma has a solid balance between the spicy rye, earthy hops, and toasted malt — though seems a bit lacking on both the roast and hops. Flavour is balanced real well despite being a bit restrained, with lots of spicy rye upfront, followed by toasted malt and piney hops. There's a tinge of fruitiness on the finish too. Well-balanced and tasty despite lacking some oomph.

On tap at TPK, pours a deep dark brown with an amber tinge and a small beige head. Aroma is pretty soft on the malts, with some red fruitiness and toasted malt. Flavour has notes of toasted chestnuts, soft bready malt, and a tiny hint of cocoa. Soft mouthfeel, with that chestnut character lingering. A bit underwhelming and lacking malt depth. But it's alright.

On tap at TPK, pours an opaque peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is fruity, with plenty of passionfruit and guava upfront, with a soft wheaty base. Flavour is juicy, with oranges and tropical fruit upfront, with only gentle residual sweetness. Nothing wrong but not a beer of sophistication. Fine.

On tap at TPK, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has a nice piney hop character, some dankness, and soft bready malt. Flavour is pungent, with lots of dank, piney hops, and balanced with just enough biscuity malt — maybe a touch of juiciness but it's pretty dry and piney. Very good.
