Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Cloudy, dark blueberry-blackberry juice, small, pink head to ring immediately. Granola, brown sugar, fruity pie. Sugar.... Not all that sour which isn't balancing this sugar. It's not egregiously sugary, but the flavors of pie crust, lactose and brown sugar arent remotely interesting either.

Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Heavily hazy, small, white head, low retention. Earthy, leafy, mineral-rich Motueka. Nice. Good fruitiness with biscuit and cracker in support. Soft, juicy, easygoing. Low bitterness but also good attenuation. Tropical fruit, bit of spice. Cracker and biscuit with a hint of pine and mango. Could be a bit brighter and more prominently hoppy.

Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Clear, dark mahogany. Small, light-tan head to spotty cover quickly. Strong hazelnut and roast. Big coffee. Maybe a bit heavy-handed on the dark malt? Clean. Yeah, lots of cola, rosey, licorice, rather grainy and scratchy. Too much dark malt, sadly, but clean.

Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Dark mahogany. Tan head slowly to ring. Undetermined clarity. Sweet, syrupy, rich, turbinado and cinnamon. Clean, though and no booze. But pretty adjuncty, though it's not egregious. Hey, this is actually fermented. Roast, choco-caramel, tasteful cinnamon. Bit of sugar lingering. Wouldn't pine away for this but for a non-BA pastry stout, this is done well.

Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Clear, brass-golden. Wispy, white head, moderate retention. Clean, honey-like malts, lovely mineral and sweat from yeast. Fruity, stone-fruit-like hops. Bright with biscuit and cracker. Soft, grainy with wheat-like chewiness and lemony-tinged, herbal hops. Dry and malty. Touch of popcorn character on the very end. Not Diacetyl, just a bit of tannin, I think. It's VERY dry. Refreshing though and well-done.

Brewery draught, 11/11/23. Lightly hazy, pale, white gold. Small, white head, creamy, sits at cover. Sweaty, stinky, corny, but charming. Dry, malty, corny and fruity. Sweaty. This is lovely. Crafty crap lager, except it's not crap. Really clean, sweaty, fruity, corny. Refreshing and substantial.

Pours slightly hazed gold into a stein. Bright white head fills the glass and is very slow to recede leaving gloppy sheets. Lemon and hay aromas. Medium bodied with sweet and sour lemon, rhubarb, and meadow upfront and continuing into the earthy bark finish.

Can, small creamy head, cloudy darkish red colour, aroma of berries and tomato with a whiff of watermelon, flavor of raspberries, berry jam and some yoghurt, light tartness and sweetness, nicely balanced. Very nice and easy to drink.

4 oz draft. Pretty color. Aroma shows straight up lemonade. Flavor has bold lemonade with a minor hint of blueberry.
