Amber colour, bright, with a bit of head. On the nose it's fairly chewy, piney, old school DIPA. On the palate it's the same. A good blast of alcohol in the finish, quite piney, moderate bitterness, some citrus, and a slightly chewy malt profile. Pretty good execution, really.

473mL can, pours an opaque, filthy dark purple with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out lots of lactose, with raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, and subdued citrus hops. Flavour is very fruity, with lots of pithy mixed berries, lactose, and citrus hops. Blended well, with the hops, fruit and lactose well-integrated. Very good.

Light soured grains. Cloudy gold with a small head. Soured lemon and a grainy note. A touch of vanilla would have made this great.

Dull brown, gross and obviously oxidized. Not much head. Aroma of strawberry soft serve, and a taste to match. Maybe strawberry Quik. I mean, if I had thought about it, I probably wouldn't have bought this beer, just on the risk that it tastes like strawberry Quik, because I outgrew that stuff by the time I went to kindergarten. Hibiscus in the colour, but flavourwise buried beneath the sickly artificial strawberry. Doesn't taste especially oxidized, so I guess that's a good thing.

Milky peach body and nice head, smells softly of vague strawberry. Flavour is sweet and fresh strawberry with a bitter hop finish. Works as advertised, decent.

Dull paleish look to it, without a head. So not super attractive. The aroma is basically kettle sour with lemon extract. Tastes like that, too. I don't get any meringue but honestly that's okay. Just a common lemon sour.

Can from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Red, filthy, medium head. Moderate fruit character, moderate sweetness, unpleasant tannins in the finish (that's the raspberry usually). Messy drink, I don't see the purpose.

473ml can. Pours a murky red-purple with a medium, foamy, long lasting, pink head that laces nicely. Sweet fruity aroma of grapefruit, raspberry, strawberry and blackberry. Sweet fruity flavour of grapefruit, lactose, blackberry, blueberry and raspberry in a dry, tart, mild bitter, hoppy finish. Medium body with a slick, oily texture and average carbonation. Fun, tasty and easy to drink. Well made.
