16 oz. can. Aroma has bold citrus fruit with mild bready malt. Spruce is very soft in the aroma. But once you sip, no hiding this spruce. Does have a decent malt background with some citrus as a counter point. A very good spruce ale.

12 oz can. Aroma deep rich cocoa and vanilla creme. There’s a reason this is in a 12 ounce can. It’s extremely sweet. They nailed the Oreo cookie without doubt. Theres very little to balance the stout. This is a desert stout, so it’s hard for me to fault it. Good in a very small dose.

16 oz can. Appearance is a slight clear dark amber. Normal carbonation. Aroma has toast, and weak toffee malt. Taste is lightly sweet, caramel malts, with hints of apple and weak earth. Light body. Overall, this is a standard everyday Amber ale. Nothing wrong with this just very basic.

16 oz. can. Aroma of dark bread, earth, and mineral-rich yeast. Flavor is moderate chocolate, maple, bread crust. Soft characters that are well balanced. On the East Coast, my favorite breweries that make quality lagers are Human Robot and Schilling. This is very close to both of those breweries. Nice!

16 oz. can. Aroma is peach, pineapple, earthy / green hops. Flavor follows with perhaps a hint of mango or an apricot situation. Earthy herbal hops provide a mild bitterness. Pretty bold sweetness from the malt. I don’t really find the Nelson Sauvin. I was really hoping I’d find white grape and passionfruit. Overall, still pretty decent.

16 oz. can. Aroma is orange, melon, and abundant sweet bread. Like Hawaiian rolls. Flavor follows. Has a strong amount of juice texture with almost no bitterness. Maybe a touch of herb. I really liked it for the first 7 or 8 ounces. Then the sweetness really starts to stack up.

16 oz. can. Aroma is mild citrus fruits with some baked bread. The backbone is mild bread like malt with decent citrus, and a mild earthy or herbal tone in the finish. Lightly bitter with hints of juice in the texture.
Pretty average overall. Although I certainly would try more from this brewery.

16 oz. Can. Aroma of chocolate, weak coffee, caramel. Flavor follows with a smooth velvety texture. Good body for the gravity. Not overly sweet. A classic, straightforward Milk Stout.
