Can to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with a quickly dissipating foamy head which didn't leave any lace
Aroma: sweet and tart strawberries; lacto/sour notes, light floral notes, subtle lemon twang underneath
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a sour to sweet to tart quality with the lacto vibes acting accordingly; finishes strawberry tart and sweet and the lacto doesn't show up as much here
Texture: light to medium bodied, leaning to be somewhat sessionable; some smoothness and the tart and sour features seem to calm down a bit to not be as aggressive as I thought they could have been
Overall: I liked this one for me and believe it's a pretty good fruited sour/tart ale I could come back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: bright orange to almost red color with a swiftly dissipating white foamy head which barely left any lace
Aroma: mixed cherry tart and sweet tones, the tart side of cranberries and a light scent of mixed raspberry sweet tones, subtle Belgian yeast noted and a lacto/sour whiff
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine tart to sour to sweet quality with a light lacto/yogurty almost sulphur-like taste; finishes tart, sour and sweet with the cherries, cranberries and raspberries
Texture: light to medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper; some smoothness but also a little bit of a tart & sour assertive sting to the tongue - mostly nonoffensive
Overall: I give this a thumbs up for the most part, maybe get some of that "sulphur"-ish tone out of the flavor to make this better.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: glossy orange color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated and left a little bit of messy sticky lace
Aroma: passion fruity, pomelo, and some mango then some lactic cheese sweet to sour-ish scents
Flavor: takes the prior noted aromas and blends to a soft tangy to tart to sour and sweet quality and adds in a touch of salt; finishes tart, tangy and semi-sour with the salt
Texture: light to medium bodied, good as a sipper; semi-cheesy smooth with some sharp tart to sour character
Overall: I almost felt like I was reviewing a Gueuze but I know this wasn't a real Gueuze. Hmmmm, well, I liked this one for me but tis quite strange yet there's a ton of character going on in this 4.1% beer.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: amber in color with a swiftly dissipating white foamy head which barely left any lace
Aroma: blackberry sweet and tart tones; guava sweetness; and some pineapple sweetness; subtle lacto/sour notes with a touch yeasty sweetness
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a tart to sweet quality initially then a light sour character seems to slide in underneath; finishes tart & sweet through those already mentioned fruits
Texture: light to medium bodied; somewhat sessionable; light smoothness but also some sour and tart pucker which gets slightly assertive
Overall: I'd say it's a good kettle sour I could return to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: yellow color with a slight chill haze to it and a swiftly dissipating white foamy head which didn't leave any lace
Aroma: really sweet pineapples & mangoes then the lactose then a light lacto/yogurty scent
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a slight tart to sweet tone at first then some of the sour from the lacto tries to blend; finishes tart and sweet through the pineapples and mangoes
Texture: light bodied; somewhat sessionable; light smoothness; the tart and sour seem to be tamer than what I was expecting
Overall: I guess this works as a kettle sour ale though the sour aspects seem a lot tamer that I would have thought.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: hazy burnt yellow color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: orange pulpy bittersweetness; sweet grassy/floral scents, light mangoes; light clean malts
Flavor: wraps the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to bittersweet quality: finishes semi-dry with floral and orangey notes
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable; fairly smooth along the tongue, light hop bitterness assertiveness
Overall: pretty nicely done APA or NEPA depending on who you talk to. I'd have again.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark purple color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light speckled sticky lace
Aroma: blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and black currants - the tart & the sweet of those fruits and the light lacto/yogurty character in there too
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to tart quality, subtle sour sliding in underneath; lingering lacto finish with all those noted berries
Texture: medium bodied, seems to lean slightly towards being a sipper; slight smooth tones, good carb level and the tart assertiveness actually feels a touch tamer than I expected
Overall: I liked this fruited tart ale with some "sour" features making this a nice beer on a Summer's evening.

Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a finger's worth of khaki foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: roasted dark malts, big coffee roasty notes, milk chocolate, toasted nuts and a touch of sweet wafery notes
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to fair sweet to roasty and light bitter quality; finishes roasty & sweet
Texture: medium bodied, good sipper, good smoothness, good carb level
Overall: nicely done impy stout I would welcome again preferably for a Winter's night though the name suggests I should try this on a Sunday morning brunch beer.
