Poured from the tap. Dark brown with beige head. Light roast malt, mild toast, touch of vanilla, subdued creamy texture. Better than expected.

Poured from the tap. Slightly hazy gold with small white head. Pretty much just caramel malt with the subtlest hint of guava (barely noticeable). What’s the point? Did they run out of hops and guava extract?

Good cloudy orange body and okay foam. Smells of nice lychee and grapefruit, pilsner base aroma still present. Taste is tart grapefruit, slight lime hints. Smooth with good carbonation, a grapefruit pilsner only Storm could succeed at.

Nice deep brown body and good foam. Smells of really good tart floral yeast, soft raspberry and cocoa hints. Taste is a nice tart meld of fruit and cocoa, raspberry notes. Lingering tartness works in all the right ways. Working very well.

Murky brown cola body and very bad foam. Good sweet cocoa on the nose, vanilla hints, milk chocolate. Flavour is nice milky cocoa, chocolate and vanilla, but finishes way too thin. Okay carbonation, but this is jumbled and doesn't know what it wants to be.

Good medium clear copper body and nice foam. Kind of an odd mix of tomato, juniper, and carrot on the nose which ends up not too bad. Flavour is definitely caramel, juniper and hops jiving together, actually somehow ending up all right. Oily finish, an odd mix that somehow pulls it off.

On tap at Darby's, pours a deep dark amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of Christmas spices and a bit of cocoa. Flavour is very spicy, with nutmeg, some ginger, maybe a little cinnamon, and a touch of cocoa. Too spicy and not enough cocoa. Not so great.

Murky orangey brown body and good solid foam. Nice sweet orange aroma, slight creamsicle character though a little subdued. Flavour is bitter earthy orange with some smokiness, lingering sweetness. Bitterness leads to a mediocre aftertaste. That bitterness doesn't help here and defeats the creamsicle vibe.
