Dark brown. Not much head. Has a very fudgey aroma. Somewhat thin with light nuts. Underhopped and the malt character isn’t all that great either.

Reddish-amber. Floral, woody dry-hop. Earthy on the palate with some toast, cocoa powder and a moderate hop bitterness.

Amber. Sweet, strong and maybe a little bit phenolic both on the palate and the nose. A bit rough, this one.

Straw colour. Grainy malt nose. Thin and light. Grainy, kind of tart. Authentic macrobrew taste, with fusels in the finish and everything.

Golden-amber. Not much head. The aroma is fairly simple - a lot of caramel. Sweetish palate with light fruitiness and a fairly low hop level. More boring than anything else.

Hazy tan, nice head. The aroma is citrusy, woody and earthy. The woody taste is full of hops, but maybe a bit of astringency. Nice, refreshing example.
