Can thanks to Dave. It pours cloudy dirty blonde with a decent white head. The aroma is crazy sweet, big raspberry vibe, white chocolate, jammy wagon wheel, raspberry cheesecake and brioche. The taste is bitter - sweet, toasty, grainy, raspberry, white chocolate, vanilla, grassy, straw and some soapiness with a drying finish. Medium body and average carbonation. A bit messy. I prefer the black version.

Can care of Dave. It pours darkest brown with a decent light tan head. The aroma is big sweet raspberry, jammy wagon wheel (Fergus), tangy, vanilla, raspberry cheesecake, candy, rocky road and some toasty action on the back-end. The taste is bitter - sweet, charred wood, earthy roast, cacao nibs, fresh raspberry, bit tangy, sugary, burnt wood, cookie dough and some astringency. Quite a disconnect between aroma and taste. Pretty fun anyhow.
