On tap at Storm, pours a golden orange with a small white head. Aroma and flavour brings out citrus hops upfront, with some lightly tart grapefruit and vinous notes. Strange concoction, but it works pretty well. Dry and lightly tart on the finish. Good stuff.

On tap at Storm, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Nose is all elderflower, with some citrus hops in there as well. Flavour brings out loads of elderflowers, with some mild Scottish malt and citrus hops.

Draft - Light caramel and grains on the nose. Clear copper with a decent white head. More light caramel and light grains, nothing particularly exciting.

Cloudy amber-red color with small frothy head. Aroma of fruits, vanilla, feet, lightly sour. Good mouthfeel, ticklish, it conveys both the beer and the wine flavor, lowly bitter.
Weird but pleasant.

On tap at Storm, pours black with a small tan head. Nose brings out harsh espresso notes, as well as some chili and/or peppercorn notes. Flavour brings out muted espresso upfront, and hints of chili and peppercorn. Not as espresso-y as I would've hoped, with a rather muted flavour profile. It's okay.

Black color, sparse head. Not the first time I get a coffee beer at Storm’s, so not surprisingly the aroma is coffeish and dusty. The body is lean, the alcohol not too strong but clearly perceived, roasted malt and coffee flavor. Would be more pleasant if it had some more sweetness, it would also improve the final. I appreciate the final herbal note though.

Hazy golden color. Some chili aroma, maybe from the previous beer on tap. Soft mouthfeel, almost sweetish, bit of artificial vanilla, no apple. Drinkable but odd.

Usual good IPA base, the sage adds a nice grassy and herbal touch, minty in the end.
Very nice.

Pale and cloudy with generous head. Delicate and weird, at the same time herbal and doughy, medicinal Odd but pleasant, and still has some of the beer character. Asian flavor almost.

Hazy, golden color. Herbal and hot, kefir, I’d drink the three ounces, but not more. Well, it would work with Thai curry, as it has similarities.
Not bad, but can’t taste the beer anymore. Very weird.

It has less wormwood than the Hemingway IPA, gentle spicy kick, a bit fruity. Surprising, and good as usual. It still has enough good character from the beer.
