473mL can, pours a pale golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out a bunch of piney hops, some gentle resins, and crisp crackery malt. Flavour has a decent grassiness, crackery malt, straw and some graininess. Grainy and seltzery, lacking the hop bite I would want in this. Okay.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 01/12/2023). Very dark brown with dissipating beige head. Very ashy, mild coffee, feint maple and chocolate. Weird wood quality. Okay, but just tastes like lower quality ingredients overall.

Poured from 473mL can. Lightly hazed blonde with small white head. Tropical and peach hops, fairly thin, alcohol hidden, meh.

473 ml can. Pours a dark brown with moderate tan head. Aromas of cigarette ash, nutty dark chocolate, burnt coffee, and dry roasted malts. Flavors of acidic black coffee, ash, plastic, sweeten dark chocolate, and watery roasted malts. Incoherent. Needs a bigger malt base and obviously some maple and bourbon presence.

Can from High Point, Vancouver
Blond colour, hazy to cloudy, dull. The aroma is fruity, apple juice, hint of tropical, almonds. Lean body, off-dry; remarkable alcohol, marzipan, and possibly acetaldehyde. Ok bitterness. The more problematic traits seem to fade, after a while, or maybe it's just palate saturation.
It seems there have been fermentation troubles with this high octane one, like I've not seen in a while.

Slight haze, thin head. Pale. Decent malt, light bitterness. So it's in the ballpark of a kolsch, but that's not exciting for me.

Light brown, clear. A light bodied beer that has a touch of acidity and a touch of toastiness. Fairly clean but I still don'�t understand the point of kentucky common.

Dark brown, fruity, lots of sticky toffeeish sugars, light coffee, almost tart -fruity I mean they absolutely nailed the style. Extra points for stylistic fidelity.

Opaque, smells sticky with lots of banana. It'�s a bit husky, lots of banana, a touch of tartness and actually not sticky -decent stab at a tough style.
