Hazy, light golden-beige with orange highlights, a frothy white cap, decent stay and nice foamy-froth lacing. Tropical-stone fruits in the nose with mango, peach, some cream, oats, herbal notes and hints of alcohol. The mouthfeel is creamy with some mild, building dryness. Lots of particles fall to the bottom of the glass at last pour - gets hazier. This adds grassiness, bitterness to the fruitiness in the taste. The drying finish gets stronger. A pretty good juicy, fruity Double IPA.

Lightly hazed, light-bright golden colour with a big frothy white cap, long lasting and leaving thick foamy lacing. Beautiful fresh Pils-like aromas with herbal notes, spicy malts, also a touch of pears and white grapes. This continues into the taste with a nice drying finish. A tad grassiness left on the tongue. This is quite a fresh, refreshing lager with a nice herbal touch reminding me of an Italian Pilsner.

Clean, very light golden colour with a bubbly cap, average lasting and leaving only a little ring. Fresh light cereal malts base with some herbal notes and a touch of spicy Pils malts. The taste is light, but had decent herbal, spicy malt action. Getting hints of apples and pears in the nose eventually, and later in the taste with the Motueka hops. Gets a touch hazy near the last pour. A little on the light side for a 5.2% ABV, but an all-around nicely refreshing, lightly spiced, herbal and fruity Pilsner.

Lightly hazed with a bunch of particles floating around, a peach-pink colour with a fizzy head that does not last long, and no lacing left. Fresh raspberry aromas with tropical notes and a lemon sourness. The taste is fairly sour with the fruitiness and mild tart left. A good sour ale with nice fruits that blend well together and goes down easily.

Lightly unfiltered, amber colour with golden highlights. a big frothy warm head, lasting a while and leaving some good lacing. Farmlike aromas with some notes of dark fruits, hints of fruitiness and a base of caramel malts. Gets hazy as it pours with particles. Again, farm notes in the flavours with a caramel malt base, and some good grassiness from the hops. A good Double IPA West Coast style that hits the spot.

Very lightly hazed, light golden-yellow bright colour with a frothy-bubbly white head, good stay and some foamy-soapy lacing. Peach aromas with some Brett-earthy, a tad sourness with lemon zest, grassiness. The peach again is not too rich in the taste, just adding some fruitiness, but the hops balanced with a herbal touch, and good dryness in the end. A nicely blended IPA with peaches, citrus notes and a tad earthiness.

Lightly hazed with some particles floating around, golden-amber colour with a big warm-white, frothy head, slightly creamy leaving some foamy-soapy lacing. Peachy-fruity aromas over the caramel malt base and nice, fresh herbal notes coming out to balance. The herbal aspect really stands out in the taste, and makes this refreshing. Not too dry, juicy, but on the thinner side. Good citrus flavours. Quite a nice IPA that goes down nicely with a good mouthfeel and a touch of peach.

Clean, golden colour with an amber hue, a fizzy off-white head that dissipates quickly, leaving no lace, nor stickiness on the glass. Apple and vinegar in the nose with hints of Belgian yeast. Mild funky flavours, a little earth, some vanilla-oak, apples and a fairly thin, dry finish. Not much vinegar taste, which is nice, as in not a sour wild ale. Gets a little hazy as it pours. Much better than I expected as mixing Brett and Tripel. An easy-drinking stronger Belgian ale with a decent Foeder, funk touch.
