Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - gusher but not as much as the Joe Allen which required some carpet cleaning. Opened it outside. Snow white head over a pale yellow body. Nose - light grass, lemon and hop spice. Taste - lemon, lemon curd and light grassy herby bitterness. Palate - light bodied, a little sweet in the middle and gentle bitterness. Overall - ok.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - massive gusher, biggest gusher since I gave up homebrewing. Eventually, murky yellow but have lost half of it. Nose - grass and herbs. Hop spice. Taste - more green herb and spice notes. Palate - light bodied, bitter finish. Overall - didn't get much of the touted fruity hops. Apart from that, it was a gusher.

Bottle thanks to Ashton McCobb. Light gusher. Pours hazy pale yellow gold with a thick white head. High carb makes it a tricky pour. Aromas of light orange and resin. Taste has some bread and marmalade. Clean finish.

Bottle thanks to Ashton McCobb. Hazy orange with a thin white head. Aromas of citrus and coconut. Taste is tinned mandarin oranges up front, a light nuttiness at the back. Good body for a GF beer. Light bitter finish.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - bright orange with a light haze. Big fluffy white head. Nose - blood orange and pink grapefruit. Taste - grapefruit and orange again. Zesty grapefruit at the back. Just a little creaminess from the lactose. Palate - light bodied, dry, balanced zesty finish. Overall - very nice, even if not as creamy as expected.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - bright but cloudy amber with a big foamy ice-cream head. Nose - tangerine, and while I can get nuttiness, it seems more like almond than coconut, at this point. Taste - creamy coconut this time, as well as tinned mandarin. Palate - light bodied, tangy middle and a dry, malty finish, accentuated by the nutty aspect of Sabro. Overall - good.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - cloudy amber with a nice creamy white head. Nose - pine and grapefruit attack up front. Then cake mixture and dried fruit. Taste - soft fruit cake which then gives way to dried citrus before citrus zest on the close. Palate - light to medium bodied, creamy in texture with balanced bitterness. Overall - very enjoyable.

Bottle from the brewery online shop. Appearance - deep mahogany to black. Beige head. Nose - pine, light smoke and molasses.. Taste - more smoke, tar and molasses, pine and citrus. Palate - light to medium bodied, roasty and set finish. Overall - this is a hopped stout or a black IPA, ko resemblance to a red ale at all.
