440ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Very, very extremely and intensely dark brown witha small and quickly dissipating brown head. Dark malts, dark chocolate, rubber. Intense taste with salted caramel, bitter cooking chocolate, Marmite. And coffee coffee coffee. Not too too bitter but certainly not sweet. Full soupy body with little carbonation. Almost needs to be described in concepts, drunk in the shadows of reality.

440ml can bought from Hopology and drunk at home. Very light gold and clear with a tiny smattering of white head. Lovely little aroma with some grapefruit, orchard fruit and a bit of papaya. Sweet taste, more sugared apple, some champagne, quite a drying finish. Gentle body with medium carbonation. A little strange but it's got bags of personality.

440ml can as part of the brewery's 6th birthday pack. Light to mid-gold and fairly hazy with a small ring of off-white head. Clean aroma with a big note of apricot, come citrus and some mint. Sweet taste with a big wave of fruity hop and more bitterness on the finish. Medium body with medium carbonation. Very well-made but for me it never took off the way the best beers do. Really wanted more from it.

440ml can bought as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Darker gold, pretty hazy with a small film of off-white head. Malty aroma, oranges, slightly piney. Bittersweet taste, lots of malt with the bitterness spreading to the finish without ever taking over. More citrus. Thick body with dialled back carbonation. Very decent.

440ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Light brown with a small ring of off-white head. Light woody smell, touch of peaches not much else to it really. The beer has a bitter taste, quite full and a little astringent. Light body with low carbonation. Impressive if almost too simple.

440ml can as part of a delivery from the brewery and drunk at home. Very light yellow/gold and clear with an uneven small white head. Aroma is a little spicy, some lemon and a touch of stone fruit. Taste is well-rounded, sweet, a little peppery. White grape, kiwi. Light body with pretty heavy carbonation. A surprisingly exciting lager.
