Have always loved porters and stouts. In recent years I have grown to really enjoy European and American lagers.

16 oz. can from a trade with tfontana. Aroma is weak white grape with mango and soft herb underneath that. Big citrus, light white grape, and ends on some booze.
Texture is dry, but I would expect it with this amount of booze. Lightly juicy texture. Certainly not bad in anyway, but this amount of alcohol is kinda nonsensical. Itโ€™s ok. Iโ€™m not following the groupthinkthink on this brew.

16 oz. can from a trade with tfontana. Aroma is soft herb and mild cracker malt. Flavor shows grapefruit and ends on herb. Body chewy malt sweetness that ends on light bitterness. Very old school. Nothing sexy here but it will get the job done.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana, thanks buddy! Aroma shows caracker malt with soft melon. Flavor is candied citrus, hints of melon and a sweet, bready malt. Medium body and a tad chewy.
Nothing about this is West Coast to me at all. Leans a little sweet. Overall, respectable. Would try more from this brewer.

16 oz can shared by tfontana, thanks! Aroma shows blackberry and tart raspberry. Flavor follows with the addition of very mild peach.
Light bodied with soft tartness and mild salinity. Good!

16 oz can shared by Chalumeaux. Aroma has you guessed it, pineapple. The flavor has a bread like malt element with pineapple and bold cinnamon. The flavor works a little bit, but then it kind of doesnโ€™t. Bitter with cinnamon throws me off. Kind of odd.

16 oz. can. Aroma is mild pineapple, soft white grape. Flavor has a pineapple, white grape, mango, and very soft herb underneath that. Good amount of juicy character with a soft texture. Definitely solid.

16 oz. can. Aroma is vague tropical fruit and candied citrus. Flavor a soft, mango, juicy orange, mild melon hints. The best thing this has going for it is it super juicy with some concentrated fruit. Tom said โ€œfruit punchโ€ and he is not wrong. ABV is masked.

16 oz can shared by tfontana, thanks! Aroma is soft bready malt, not much else. Flavor is super light malt character with honey and bread. Does show a mild crispness. Has a very subtle Hallertau finish. Thinner in texture. Yet, ends clean.
