Can to stange.
Appearance: orange color with a slim cap of white foamy head which dissipated fairly quick and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: lime flesh and skin - slightly tart and sweet, sour-ed wheat and a subtle whiff of salt
Flavor: pretty much copies the aromas in a sweet to sour to tart and salty sort of way; finishes salty, tart and sour wheaty with the lime
Texture: light bodied, sessionable; some smoothness but also some tart nicks to the tongue - nothing overbearing
Overall: this one is way more Gose like than the plum one, I'm not exactly sure why as I believe the fruits were probably just swapped out from the base but eh, who really knows? I believe I'd have to come back to this in that respect.

Can to stange.
Appearance: orange color with a finger and a half's worth of white foamy head which dissipated fairly quick and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: plum flesh and skin - slightly tart and sweet, sweet wheat and a whiff of lemon sweetness
Flavor: pretty much mirrors the aromas in a sweet to tart sort of way and adds a little bit of salt; finishes salty, tart and sweet wheaty with the plums
Texture: light bodied, sessionable; some smoothness but also some tart nicks to the tongue - nothing overbearing
Overall: as a salted plum tart ale, it works and I could come back to it in that respect.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: orange to copper color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which trailed off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: mango to papaya and lemon sweet scents; light perfume to floral notes; light soap notes, bubblegum and sweet candied pomme-like fruits and some herbal quality down in there
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a sweet to floral sweet to dry candy sweet quality: finishes fairly dry and somewhat like lemon candy with a new herbal tone to it
Texture: light to medium bodied, slightly sessionable; some smoothness but also noted dryness
Overall: I think I could have done without the soapy to bubblegum scent and the excessive sweet candy-like taste but other than those two things, this is a somewhat do-able beer.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: chill haze orange color with a finger and a half of white foamy head which slid off at a nice pace and left some light lace.
Aroma: lemon, orange, grapefruity, pineapple dark berries, earthy tones, subtle hay/straw and some funky to sour tones
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas to a fine funky to tart to sour and slightly sweet sort of quality; finishes the same way
Texture: light to medium bodied, slightly sessionable; light smoothness with a touch of dryness and the funky & sour character seems to not get in the way
Overall: not a bad saison, turned way better than I was thinking.

On tap at Burger Bar, Colchester, VT.
Appearance: dark orange/almost brown color with a bar pour's kind of slim head which slid off and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: pumpkin sweetness, cinnamon, and I think allspice; then some vanilla, light baker's chocolate, some other weird vegetal backing
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a sweet and semi-spicy vibe; finishes fairly dry mostly with the pumpkin, vanilla and cinnamon
Texture: medium bodied - maybe just a touch under; some sessionability to this despite the big ABV; subtle smoothness as the spices seem to be fairly faint
Overall: I believe I've had better pumpkin beers so I'm not entirely sure how much I need to come back to this one.

Bottle to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown color close to black in color with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which tapered off at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: some floral and spicy rye notes, dark chocolate, barrel woody spice, good level of ash to burnt notes then some milk chocolate
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a sweet ashy to spicy rye and chocoaltey vibe; finishes pretty ashy and barrel spicy
Texture: medium bodied, this is a sipper; not really smooth as the rye really hits hard and the ashy-ness really dries the whole thing out
Overall: I liked the rye aromas and flavors but honestly, I think they need to scale back how the rye is conveyed in the feel.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: dark copper color with a finger and a quarter of white foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: floral, grapefruity and mango/papaya-ish hoppy tones; subtle malts underneath
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a sweet to bittersweet quality: finishes very floral
Texture: medium bodied, semi-sessionable; some smoothness but also some hop aggression
Overall: though I'm not much of a Two Roads fan, this isn't a bad beer, perhaps again, maybe.

From beerolution, Troisdorf, best before 05/25, tasting it with pleasure, two days ago, at Epalinges. Solid and old school ipa, medium body, malty, note of sweetness typical for a double, resinous, bitter and citrus, boozy, subtle.
gave a cheers!
