650ml bottle. (6.5% ABV) Pours a clear dark brown with amber hue and a small, creamy, short lived, tan head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted caramel malt, milk chocolate, cherry, coffee and a hint of smoke. Sweet flavour of roasted caramel malt, milk chocolate, tart cherry, licorice and smoke with a dry, bitter coffee finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Nice.

A bit frozen, so may not be completely accurate. Banana and a touch of orange. Cloudy orange with a decent white head. Orange and light banana with a clean finish. Salt is almost non existent and banana esters are too dominant.

355ml can. (4.8% ABV) Pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that laces. Sweet aroma of grainy pale malt, biscuit, apple and grass. Sweet flavour of biscuit malt, apple, pear, lemon and yeast with a crisp, dry, mild bitter, grassy finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and average carbonation. This is actually not bad, for what it is. A clean, refreshing, easy drinking, flavourful lager.

On tap at Fox on 6th. Pours golden to amber, crystal clear, some greenish tinges. Persistent, off-white head. Aroma is medium to high: roses, orange blossom, dandelion. Flowery. Mouthfeel is boozy, powerful, very bitter. Long-lasting finish. Nice, despite the low score.

Hazy, yellow. Lots of passion fruit on the nose. On the palate, lots of passion fruit, bright fruit, but with a salty, fairly yeasty note.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy pale gold-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves curtains of lace. Dank, fruity aroma of pale malt, pineapple, mango, guava, orange, lemon, grapefruit and pine resin. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, blood orange, lemon, grapefruit, pineapple, guava and mango with a dry, bitter pine resin finish. Medium body with a creamy, smooth, oily texture and average carbonation. Not really getting any hemp, but I was still very impressed. Probably their best offering to date.

650ml bottle shared with Alex and Farees. Pours a bit hazy copper with tan head. Aroma is sweet green and red apples. Taste is similar with sour and barrel notes. Not really nice.

Bottle - Caramel, light raisin and sweetness. Clear Amber with a small beige head. Sourness, sweet raisin and a bit of wood. This has gone off a bit.

Tasting at Sergey's
Dark amber color, hazy, small tan head. Aroma of dark fruits and apple. Medium body and mild residual sweetness; light caramel base, light butter (but this is the rum), dark fruits, light sourness, and not very boozy.
Not bad.
