16 oz can from Carton, via delivery, 6/27/22. Carton tick #99 for me. Hazed yellowish-orange with a foamy head. Catty, onion, citrus zest. Solid mouthfeel. Good beer.

16 oz can from Carton delivery, 6/27/22. Clear golden, thin white head. Strong lemongrass and coriander. Herbal, grainy, spice. Super bright. Rather dry. A good mix, but not quite hitting for me the way I would have expected. Still, it's solid.

16 oz can from Carton delivery, 6/27/22. Canned 6/15/22. Mangonion, apricot, a little bit of melon. Touch of cheese. Green pepper. Some dank weed notes too. Good stuff going on here. Drinks clean. Not super bitter. Well hidden ABV. Finished the can and I'm still not sure what I think of it, but it settled here. Might update with another can if I remember.

16 oz can from Carton delivery, 6/27/22. Clear rusty gold, creamy off white head. Bread, earth, lemon, and a touch spice. Kinda had even a rye or pumpernickel thing to it. Smooth, clean, exceedingly drinkable. Finishes on the dry side. Really flavorful for a 3.5% beer. Probably won't get to try it on cask, but I bet it's great with that treatment.

16 ounce can. My fifth different Wedge Issue varietal. Keep ‘em coming, Augie! Hazy orange gold pour. Large pillowy white head leaves exquisite lacing. Floral hop aroma hints at tangerine and vanilla. Flavor is sweet citrus, lime, orange and vanilla. Some citrusy bitterness in middle. A hint of grape and lime on backend. Soft on palate from the wheat and oats. Tasty.

16 oz can from Carton delivery, 4/28/22. Brown color, light brown head. Rich and malty, nice subtle smoke, definite ashy, blunt thing coming through. Light sweetness. Solid stuff, would have like the smoke malt to come through more.

16 oz can from Carton delivery, 4/28/22. Canned 4/22/22. Hazy yellowish-orange color with a nice creamy and frothy off-white head. Strong lacework. Two hops I'm a little less familiar with than some of the one's that get showcased all the time are doing there work here, and I'm getting sweet juiciness on the aroma. Mango, pineapple, papaya, and vanilla. Rather juicy flavor as well. Sweet, lightly sticky. Drinks smooth. It seems that I am getting much more of the Lotus than the Bravo. Pretty tasty overall.
