SEE WHATβS HAPPENING! 750 mL bottle from Mikerphone, purchased on the day of my sisterβs wedding. Hazy orange, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of strong mango, papaya, pine, pale malt. 1-2-OH MY GOD! The taste is strong mango and tropical fruit, kinda like a canned fruit cocktail, pale malt, grapefruit. Medium bodied, juicy. Too fruity, if that makes any sense. Technically Iβm as hard as steel.

Bottle thanks to Russell. Pours black with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is strong maple syrup, roast, dark chocolate. Thick, chewy, so much maple, bitter roast, enjoyed this.

Tap at Mikerphone. Earthy aroma. Buttery. Not really that good. Tries to be delicate but fails. Meh. Caramel. Earthy. Quite a weak offering.

Tap at Mikerphone. Unfiltered thick orange-juice like body. Foamy glass lacing white head. Very modern. The lactose lends a smooth, creamy, cooling feel. The hops are juicy and fresh, a pinch restrained maybe. Pretty good modern APA, in no way a classic APA.
