Can from Bottle Baron. Black body with a thin tan head. Faint lacing. Aroma of peach, charred toast and beef stock. Flavour of Marmite, black pepper, orange pith and ash. Medium body with a frothy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. An unusual Stout because of the choice of hop used. For me, this sits in the middle of a Stout and a Black IPA. I liked it.

440ml can from Chez Sophie. Pours a misty pale gold, small white head. Aroma of fresh stone fruit. Taste is similarly fresh, lightly hoppy, pleasant citrus fruit, mild orange, very mild grapefruit, smooth oaty textures. Decent modern IPA.

440ml can. Pours black, medium tan head. Strong roast, pine needle, bitter dark chocolate and simcoe hop on the nose. Taste presents similar layers, good layered grainy dark malts, chocolate, coffee grain, some nice hop flourishes, drying close. Comes together very well. Excellent hoppy stout.

440ml can. Pours hazy pale yellow, white topping. Aroma presents fresh floral, light, breezy exotics. Taste continues along a similar theme, fresh light, peachy, distant pineapple, not massively full on and thus very drinkable and refreshing. Another good one from Loka.

Can. Hazy orange - gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mild fine crispness. Fluffy malts, little thin, mild creamy sweetness. Hops are on the dirty side. Bitterish onion and a trace of garlic underpin orangey hops. Little spicy bitterness. Fairly dry finish brings a touch of rubbery skunk. Not doing huge amounts for me and I was in no hurry to take another mouthful.
