(Can) Pours black with a small tan head. Good hoppy aroma with pine and citrus. Good mouthfeel too with medium body and plenty of fine prickly carbonation. Good and unusual taste. There’s plenty of hops and a decent amount of bitterness, combined with dark chocolate. Very enjoyable.

(Can) Pours black with short-lived tan head. Unusual aroma, with cloves most apparent and maybe hints of meat and cola. Medium body, with some slickness, and modest but bright carbonation. Really quite odd flavour with quite a distinct chili burn in the finish. There’s some cola and carbolic, and cloves, and maybe some meatiness. The finish is dominated by the chilli burn but there’s also some bitterness. It weird, confusing and not pleasant. Christmas pudding with meaty gravy, black coffee and hot chillies. Not sure I can finish this.

(Can, but 4.1%) Pours hazy orange with no head, looking rather like orange cordial. Aroma of orange cordial. Light body with fine bright carbonation. Thin, rather watery, taste. Orange and tartness that is largely citric but a little more interesting. Rather simple taste and a bit washed out.

(Can, but now 5.6%) Pours hazy deep amber with small wide head. Pine aroma. Medium body with fine prickly carbonation. Taste has hops from start to finish, nicely and subtly balanced with caramel malt. There’s some pleasant hoppy bitterness in the finish, but quite restrained considering the dominance of hops through the palate. Very enjoyable.

(Can. 4.5% and described as Australian Pale Ale) Pours clear golden amber with decent white head. Pleasant, restrained but complex aroma with notes of stone fruit, biscuits and floral hints. Light body with bright carbonation. Biscuity malt with some pleasant herbal hoppy bitterness. Straightforward pleasant beer.

(Can) Pours clear golden with almost no head. Pleasant hoppy pine aroma. Light body with bright carbonation. Taste is a little thin, but reasonable for a session beer. Slightly tart citrus start quickly shifts to peppery and slightly herbal hops with hints of light biscuit malt. Some light bitterness in the finish. Pleasant session beer.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy amber with tiny white head. Very subtle aroma - slightly fruity, slightly bready. Medium body, smooth and slightly sticky with medium bright carbonation. Unusual and enjoyable taste with a lot going on. There’s a fair amount of sweetness, some tangy apricot jam fruitiness at the start, some pleasant hoppy bitterness in the finish, creamy notes in the middle. Unusual, pleasant.
