Broadway draught, 5/23/26.
Far left.
Wow are those terpenes?? Actually walked over and took a can out of the cooler to see. But no, just CryoPop hops. Smells like terpenes, but a bit fruitier and rounder than your usual Cannabis terpenese. Still very spicy, slightly skunky, but clear and bright with light biscuit and a touch of honey-like malt to gently balance.
Spicy and zesty with excellent flavor for its size. Amply malty with good attenuation. Light honey and biscuit. Terpene-like, but fruitier. Lightly juicy and well-balanced.

Broadway draught, 5/23/26.
2nd from left. Nose is incredibly well-expressed plum. Rich and juicy but also with balancing acidity, earthiness, slight floral tones. Incredibly authentic and with a massive brightness and clarity. The base appears to be a light kettle sour with no lactose and good attenuation, but no excess lactic acidity.
Bit of crackery, biscuity malt and a burst of both sweet malt and plum before drying out nicely with a moderate amount of lactic acidity. On the drier side but not thin and overdry like a lot of kettle sours. The plum still rules the show, wonderfully.

Thanks to whom added, I’m debating changing the style to
Black lager as it’s quite dark. Blackish amber and smaller head. Nose is grains, earth and coffee. Tatses of coffee grind, grainy, some florals, toast. Medium light bodied.

Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a two and a half to three finger eggshell white foamy head dissipated and left some light lace
Aroma: caramel/toffee malt tones up front with some roasty coffee tones, nice allocation of cocoa powder, then some earthy hops underneath
Flavor: blends all the previously noted aromas together semi-sweet and roasty; mild bitterness underneath; subtle aftertaste of the coffee tones and cocoa powder
Texture: medium bodied, some sessionability, fairly smooth along tongue; finishes roasty with some chocoatey sweetness
Overall: first time I had this I thought it was more of an English porter but the second time I had this it came across more of an American porter, hmmmm, well either way, it's good enough to have again.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky copper color with a one and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off delicately and left some light lace
Aroma: pasionfruit-like hoppiness up front with some citrus hop vibes and an underscore of some danky oniony character
Flavor: bittersweet juicy hoppiness meshing with the clean malts then following through in the aftertaste as to being juicy citrusy and danky
Texture: about medium bodied - perhaps just a touch under and showing signs of being fairly sessionable; somewhat smooth along my tongue; finishes creamy and smooth while pushing the danky tones back a little further
Overall: I can see this as a NEIPA, yes but also could be an AIPA too. I believe I would come back to this.

Canning date illegible. But freshly purchased from cooler. Drunk 10/15/25.
Clear, coppery-golden-brass. Small, off-white head, steadily to ring.
Lightly woody, christmasy spice seems very Chinook-like, so that's nice. Not the harsh wood and grapefruit of Simcoe and Centennial. Orange oil, sticky honey and minimal medium malts, with mostly base malt, no iced tea and no toast. Nice.
Marmalade and pine with woody Simcoe and very slight cherry-like fruitiness. Soft, sticky, supportive texture with some chew to it and good attenuation. Bitterness is deftly managed and not overdone. No resin, no big pine. Really nice use of a chewy maltiness to soak up the extra acid, while not making a gross, resinous, toasty WC IPA.
