Ok. So this is not my style. Slightly sweet malty aroma, zero hops. Thick mouth feel, super soft carb. Slightly sweet malts finish, again no hops....cream ales are all the same, and they suck.

Clear slightly pink pour, with no head. Aroma of, well.....grapefruit, and its not that artificial either......not bad. Soft carb, slightly watery mouth feel. The finish is where this goes off the rails. The flavour and aftertaste smack of fake artificial bitter flavourings.......tastes like a laboratory. Bitter and pithy, bordering on undrinkable.

West coast pale ale....ummmm, not in this bottle. Tinges of citrus, pale, yeasty malts. Nothing very impressive, and quite boring. Run of the mill pale ale.

Cask Days 2013. Emailed the brewery, they said they never send one of their Dragon series beers to Cask Days. They say this is the beer they sent. So i Guess it was mislabeled on the keg, and in the booklet.
Ok, with that being said.....
Hazy golden/orange pour, with a small, rocky, white head. Really nice, citrus aroma, with some good singular notes of grapefruit, and tangerine. The finish was on the higher side of bitter, and finished with a sublime grapefruit note. excellent beer, supremely drinkable.

650ml bomber.
Cleam amber pour, rocky white head, sticky lacing. Aroma is resinous, lots of pine, even some spruce. Sweet orange citrus and a little butter (diacetyl?)
Mouth feel and carbonation are spot on. Finish is very bitter, and leaves a peppery resinous pine flavor. Decent ipa, not sure its a dipa.

Big aromas of cocoa, and vanilla. The strawberry seems to get lost in the shuffle, maybe there are some hints in that there is a subtle tartness in the finish, but mostly this is a vanilla cocoa stout. And a good one at that! desert in a bottle!
