Can from the brewery. Slightly hazy amber pour with almost no head, it fizzled like a can of pop. Very earthy aroma, hints of pine and strong caramel malts and a bit musty around the edges. Finish is medium bitter, cheap hop pellet flavour, sweet caramel malts, a little vegetal. Not very good.

Can from the brewery. Brown, copperish pour, with a small quickly dissipating white head. Aroma is lactic and tart, notes of lemon and grass. Mouth feel is thin, carb is light. Finish is medium sour, more lemon and lactic notes with some hints of hop and grass. Not much here indicating this was an ipa before being soured, tastes lie a straight forward sour ale really.

Can from the brewery. Clear ruby/mahogany pour, with a small off white head. Aroma is tart, and lactic with some slightly burnt brown sugar, dark, tart maple syrup, and some strong raisin. Mouth feel is watery, and the carb is soft. Finish is quite tart and loses any sweetness it had. Finish is burnt brown sugar, and tartness, and very dry. Very odd beer.

Can from the brewery. Clear golden pour, large white head. Really nice cereal Aroma,, light and bready, hints of lemon and fresh cut grass. Crisp mouth feel, good carb. Finish is lightly bitter, nice malty cereals. I'm quite impressed and surprised.

On tap at the crown and beaver. Clear ruby pour, with a tiny off white head. Aroma is nutty, slightly musty, some wet paper and hints of caramel. Very low carb, by design told, and the mouth feel is thin. Finish is very low on the bitterness scale, light caramel malts, but the mustiness doesn't go away. Meh.

Clear Copper pour, medium white head. Aroma is pretty much just a soft candied ginger, with some light spice. Nice mouth feel, carb is the same. Finish is lightly bitter, more candied ginger, light toasted cereals, refreshing, ginger isn't overpowering, rye is a little lost..

Pours a dark brown, lots if light coming through, tiny head, dissipates very quickly. Aroma is slightly roasty, light fruit, can't really pick out blue berry. Subtle sweetness, can't really pick out vanilla. Hmm.... OK? Slightly sweet, slightly roasty, watery lightly bitter boring Porter.

Can from the brewery. Clear amber pour, with almost no head, and it dissipates quickly. Aroma is burnt brown sugar, toffee, and subtle pine resin. Mouth feel and carb are standard. The finish is incredibly bitter. Strong pithy bitterness, big notes of alcohol, sweet malts, strong resinous hops, this is pretty rough.
