On tap at Storm, pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings a great mix of chocolate, oranges and very light roast - smells like an orange chocolate cake. Flavour follows the suit, with wonderful chocolate notes upfront, with secondary orange notes. It's like a decadent cake. Surprisingly nice - a pleasure to drink.

On tap at Storm, pours a cloudy golden with a medium white head. Nose brings out loads of oranges, balanced by resinous hops. Flavour is extremely well-balanced, with lots of oranges, citrus, and piney hops. Dry, fruity and zesty. Another excellent Storm IPA.

On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of grass, spices, feet, and biscuity notes. Flavour brings out juicy pomegranate, along with spices and some grassy notes. Fruity and spicy. Decent.

On tap at Storm, pours a dark amber with a small tan head. Nose is very fruity, with raspberries upfront, along with light tartness from the Flanders Red. Flavour is along the same lines, with raspberries, cherries, and medium tartness that doesn't take away from the fruitiness. Balanced and cohesive, and highly drinkable. Very good.

On tap at Storm, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Nose is all ginger, with light strawberry and a touch of hops. Flavour brings a blast of ginger, tempered by fairly prominent strawberries, and a good dose of citrus hops. Well-balanced and cohesive. Really nice stuff.

On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Nose is very fruity, with notes of kiwi and berries. Flavour is wonderful, with loads of kiwi, berries, other tropical fruits, and a wallop of citrus hops. Beautiful mix of fruitiness and hops. Excellent stuff - one of Storm's best brainstorms.

On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden orange with a small white head. Nose brings out lots of orange juice pulp. Flavour is a great blend of pulpy orange juice and citrus hops, though more orange juice. Very drinkable stuff, not much of a beer, but a way too drinkable alcoholized OJ.

On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Nose brings out cream soda, some cinnamon and other earthy notes. Flavour is about the same, not as strong and cream soda-like as the Cherry Cream Soda (which was Scottish Ale based). Decent, but not my favourite Storm brainstorm.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a cloudy pinkish orange with a small white head. Aroma indeed brings out cherry creamy soda in the quirky fashion only Storm can do. Flavour is actually quite decent, with sweet cherries and cream soda. This could've been a disaster but it's actually quite decent.

On cask at 12 Kings, pours a filthy dark orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out oranges upfront, with a small hint of cocoa. Flavour is pretty mediocre, with notes of oranges dominating - not a whole lot of cocoa in here. Not a big fan of this - pretty weak.
