Draught at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2015. Opaque black liquid with a small tan head. Aroma of coconut, chocolate, raw sugar, coffee, light vanilla and light wood. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with notes of chocolate, coconut and coffee. Full bodied with light to medium carbonation. Really good.

Draught at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2015. Light hazy orange liquid with a medium off-white head. Aroma of fresh hops, mango, citrus, light pine and light bread. Taste is dry and medium to high bitter with notes of mango, citrus and pineapple. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Absolutely awesome. Solid golde. One of the top beers of the festival.

The beer pours cloudy and yellow with just a shade or so of amber. Medium white head, fine bubbles, good amount of lacing. The aroma has a good amount of tropical fruit hoppiness with a lime edge. Mild pale malt character. A bit yeasty - definitely seems like a lighter beer right off the bat. Taste is quite dry. Very refreshing. Mild to moderate bitterness. Light on the palate but some soft fullness to the mouthfeel. Good hop flavor in the taste. Very easy to drink. Light grassy finish with a touch of spice. Solid beer.

Nitro pour. The beer is coffee black with ruby brown edges. Creamy beige blanket of nitro foam on top. Lots of lacing. The aroma is basically pure coffee. Pure delicious coffee. Big fruity flavors. Berries and chocolate and molasses but all in the context of coffee flavors, which I suck at identifying. Some caramel maltiness holding things up. Smells like excellent cold brew. Taste has more of the same. Tons of wonderful coffee flavor. Mild lactose sweetness. Very easy to drink and enjoyable. Smooth nitro feel. Light and nice. I’m not normally a big fan of light coffee beers but this is excellent.

The beer is a dark yellow amber color. It’s pretty hazy. Smallish, dull white head. The aroma is full of tangerine and pineapple hoppiness. Light spicy, limey edge to it. Some mango and papaya. Very citrus forward. Taste has a lot of citrus. It’s pure tangerine juice and rind, really. Moderate bitterness. Easy to drink. Lots of good hop flavor. Mild pale malt character. Lots of hop oiliness. Good stuff though I feel like I’ve grown away from Citra with all of these awesome hops that Cellarmaker uses.

The beer is a bright yellow gold. It looks pretty clear, maybe perfectly so. Good sized white head with thick rings of lacing. Sweet citrus aroma. Big peach note with some grape. Not super juicy, more of a sweet, light fruity hoppiness. A little piney, resin spiciness. Taste is mildly bitter. Everything is light and fresh with sweet hop flavors. A bit hard to pick out the delicate fruitiness in the taste. Light pine finish with a bit more bitterness. Light on the palate. Tasty enough. I’d like to try the comet by itself but maybe that doesn’t work great. Pleasant if a touch boring.

The beer is a medium gold color with just a bit of haze. Medium to small white head. Some lacing. Aroma is a little odd. There’s some nice tropical fruit action on top of orange juice hoppiness, but it’s a bit musty and there’s some crystal malt making itself known. The musty, cheesy note blows off after a minute, which is nice. Solid mango, kiwi, papaya blended with orange juice. The beer is balanced, I guess. Sweeter than I’m used to from Cellarmaker. Mild caramel malt character. It’s not too strong and mostly stays out of the way but I can understand their deScription of the beer as an aggressive pale ale. Medium body. That malt gives it a touch of chewiness. Still pretty light and easy to drink. Some bland bitterness in the taste, although it’s not really a bitter beer. Good and well made, just not quite to my taste.

The beer is a pale yellow tan color. Liquid is fairly cloudy. Solid enough looking white head, a bit rocky. Some lacing. The aroma is a big mix of hop flavors. Pineapple, tangerine, light floral note. There’s a little more tropical stuff with some mango and papaya. Some berries, some pine. A little bit of pepper. Not particularly juicy but good flavors. No real malt presence. Taste is quite dry. Moderate to medium bitterness. Very refreshing and crisp. A little piney. The flavors just feel a touch muddled and with all of those hops, it seems like a jack of all trades of a hoppy beer. Still good, though.

The beer is black with a small to medium light brown head. A bit of lacing. Big coconut flavor in the aroma. Just dominates the stout in a good way. It smells like coconut milk poured on to a stout brownie. Mild toasted malt, lots of chocolate. Big coconut in the taste but it’s not quite as dominant. Pretty good dose of caramel malt sweetness. Full smooth mouthfeel. Could be a bit chewier but it’s plenty thick for the abv. Very nice combination of chocolate and coconut. Tasty, tasty beer.

The beer is a nice bright gold color. Liquid is quite clear. Medium ish white head. Fine bubbles, some lacing. Decent retention. Some legs. The aroma is full of juicy fruity hop goodness. Bright and tropical. Big peach, grape, pineapple, mango, tangerine. A little bit of pine resin spice underneath the fruit. It’s a very nice mix of flavors. Big fruity hop flavors in the taste as well. Mild bitterness, picking up a little in the finish. Tangerine and mango and melon. Papaya, sweet orange. I’m just throwing out fruits now. No real bland bitterness. Doesn’t have the mineral flavor of some of their hoppy stuff but otherwise, I’m loving it. Smooth, light mouthfeel, lots of hop oiliness. I also tried a version served in a cask with fresh Mosaic hops. That had a delicious earthy hop character with even more juicy fruitiness. Fun stuff.
