Cloudy modest yellow body and zero foam. Wet lemon on the nose maybe, and someone tell me how that's supposed to resemble a mimosa. Taste is wet juice, vague grain, and I have to ask why they even bothered putting together such an embarassingly subpar beer.

Okay hazy medium orange body and minimal foam. Sort of a musty coconut on the nose, no idea how that is supposed to resemble a piña coláda. Taste is vague air freshener, coconut perhaps, piña colada certainly not. In fact I really have no idea what is going on here, but it's not worth remembering.

Nice hazy orange body and pretty good foam. Soft pine and melon on the nose, but still rather faint. Taste is chalky melon, soft pine, ending wet. I'm not a huge fan of the wetness but this is still working all right.

Nice foam on a clear gold body. Very vague cracker on the nose, almost not there. Taste is vague sweet hops, honey ending rather wet. The standard for backyard parties across the region, if only for its inoffensive nature.

Good deep red body and pretty much no foam. Mellow cherry on the nose, maybe some vague lime. Taste is a bright limey raspberry, good carbonation, dry finish with some lingering tartness. Enjoyable.

Okay hazy orange body and a bit of foam. Soft apricot and vague peach on the nose, both way too soft. Taste is a chewy peach, vague apricot, ending full and slightly sweet. A little soft but getting the job done.

Hazy deep orange body and minimal foam. Very weak cereal on the nose, almost not there. Taste is wet dough, vague cereal and banana, ending very watery. Seems like half a saison at best.

Very nice deep blackish brown body, good foam. Soft biscuit on the nose, a little black coffee, all a little too faint. Taste is a chewy biscuit, good carbonation, slight molasses. Nothing to it but made well enough.

Medium brown. Medium head. The aroma is toasty, light roast. On the palate, it's a bit sweeter than that. Sort of a lowish bitterness, toast/roast but not a bad malt complexity. Even a light fruitiness. It's richer than Horseshoe Bay Nut Brown was, but I can actually see an homage in the yeasty dark malt character.

473ml can. Pours an opaque dark brown, almost black with a small, creamy, short lived, tan head that laces nicely. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, milk chocolate and vanilla. Sweet flavour of lightly roasted malt, lactose, strawberry, milk chocolate and vanilla in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. A bit sweet, but does remind me of the ice cream. Would be a good desert beer.
