Can from Paul thanks for the hookup.
Dark brown bordering on black with a decent sized tan head that slowly recedes. Bitter malt with peppery coffee and earthy hops to balance.

Can pour from the brewery. It's a cloudy light brown-dark yellow with tons of floaties, finger-width off-white foamy head with poor retention and small ring of lacing. Aroma is strong citrus and pine. Taste is strong pine and cracker. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and finish as taste with lingering bitterness. Overall, more conventional, or even West Coast, DIPA than Double NEIPA. Weird to get this out of Galaxy.

Can from tfontana, thanks for the trade. Just a touch of haze in a light golden beverage with a decent sized bubbly white head. Resinous earthy citrus pine and tropical fruits with bits of faint malt to counter.

16 oz. can in a trade with tfontana. I love a Rick & Morty reference. This has “ Out of this Galaxy” on the bottom of the label and shows the profile of Rick. Aroma has weak citrus and a light stone fruit hint. Flavor is the same with a good amount of malt throughout the sip. Leans on the sweet side. Tiny bit of bitterness in the finish.

Pours a deep russet from a can. Light pumpkin-spice aroma and flavor, a little watery but at least not very sweet compared to many pumpkin beers. Okay beer.

Draught at Canary Square, 9/30/21. Clear, very light straw-blonde. Small white head quickly recedes to a ring. Blueberry in the nose feels tastefully done. Not cheap and concentrate-like nor is it heavy-handed. Some light grains, hints of honey and biscuit lie in the background. Light and well-attenuated with a medium-light body, a good malt texture and plenty, though not too much blueberry. That said, I think any adjunct is too much adjunct in a kolsch. In my opinion, just use a clean, light, golden ale yeast and highlight the blueberry if you want a light blueberry beer. Why bother covering up the delightful kolsch yeast character with adjunct? Fine though, not insipid and sugary.

Cask at the Great British Beer Festival 2016, day 2 - London. Pours clear yellow-gold with a creamy, white head. Big Belgian yeast in the aroma, some ripe lemon, pale bread. Medium sweet flavour with notes of white grape, citrus gummies, yeast. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Sweet finish, more lemony notes, pale bread, yeast and biscuits. Good stuff.

Fun beer name and label brings me back to my youth. Orange pour and fairly cloudy and large white head. Nose is rich citrus and some herbal tones. Tastes of manadarin oranges, black pepper, lemon, basil, creamsilcle. Some light biters.
