Bottle with a ton of sediment at the bottom. Coca-cola brown body with rock head with large bubbles. Good retention. Aroma of cocoa dust, dirt and leather, with a nice mocha quality. Also a little roasty and metallic finish to the nose. Taste is very roasty with low residual sugars. Earthy, leathery and dry components. Slight metal. Bitter chocolate and a bit of dark fruits. A bit thin and dry on the mouth. Alcohol isn’t really detectable.

Bottle. Pours with a very large and rocky off-white head that slowly diminishes over a clear penny colored body. Good, maybe even great lace. Aroma of orange, caramel, citrus, zest, herbal, light yeast and a spicy malt profile. Softer notes of honey, plastic, apricot, and various florals. Taste is nutty and woody with notes of earth, pine and plastic. Lively carbonation with a dry and light finish.

Bottle. Pours with a hazy golden orange body with a fluffy off-white head a top. Apricot, honey biscuit, hops, citrus, tangerine, mango, and various exotic fruits on the nose. Taste is bitter (extremely so for a blond), and fruity, with hints of lemon and earth. A touch of malty cracker on the finish. Over carbonated, dry. Very nice blond. Alcohol is well hidden.

Bottle. Pours with a small khaki head over an extremely dark brown body. Aroma of chocolate, leather, plums, soil, earthy hops, and a bit of smoke. Reminds me a bit of Great Divide’s Yeti in the aroma. Taste is smokey, earthy, hoppy and full of very bitter chocolate, coffee and roast. Water like mouthfeel, medium to light carbonation.

Cloudy yellow. Aroma has yeast, bubblegum, and coriander. Flavor has beef jerkey and more coriander with a little citrus. Some sweetness, but for the style, not that sweet really.

Hazy straw colour. Tart, grainy nose with apple skins. Sour, herbal, and lightly spicy. Whatever this is doing, I think the footy, slightly autolyzed electrical cord note doesn’t work for me.
