4.4/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
Crystal clear, straw-colored, with an average, thick, white head. A faint malty aroma with a slight lemon note. A slightly malty taste with a slight residual sweetness and minimal lemon. A light, smooth body with medium carbonation. Simple and monotonous

6.3/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Hazy light golden body, white crust. Mango, passionfruit, pineapple in the nose, taste dry, less intensive mostly exotic fruit salat and zestiness, with gentle pithy bitterness. It's fine, but didn't 'do it' for me.

Light golden, crisp, and clear, with a decent white head. Light maltiness, grass, and herbs on the nose. Decent herbal and earthy bitterness. Pleasant.

5.5/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5.5 Flavor 5.5 Texture 5 Overall 5.5
Pale straw, clear with small short lived white foam. Peach dominates aroma and taste. Low to medium body, low carbonation, no bitterness. Tastes like fruity cider or shandy.

6.1/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
Crystal-clear gold with a white head. Caramel aroma, slightly buttery, with a hint of citrus. The taste is similar, dominated by caramel, biscuits, and a noticeable bitterness with grassy and citrus notes. Light to medium-bodied, oily, semi-dry, and bitter. It's okay, but I expected it to be more citrusy.

7/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
Dark gold in colour, clear, with high carbonation and a tall head that nonetheless subsides quickly. The aroma features burnt bread crust, a delicate touch of hops, and a very clean profile. The flavour offers pleasant maltiness, melanoidins, a hint of caramel, and subtle diacetyl, complemented by pleasant herbal-floral hop notes and a background bitterness. It feels full-bodied yet doesn't weigh the palate down. A beer that is true to style. Highly drinkable.

6.9/10 Appearance 7 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
Dark brown color, clear beer; brown head—not overly abundant but reasonably persistent; the overall impression is oily. Intense aroma with roasted and smoky notes; hints of warm smoke, ash, a touch of saltiness, plum butter, plums, and gingerbread; a well-composed, sweet, dark, and pleasant profile; alcohol is perceptible but well-hidden. Full-bodied and sweet on the palate, with a distinct roasted character; notes of charred wood, smoke, slight saltiness, cocoa, plum butter, dates, herbs, phenols, and sweet coffee; a rounded and well-balanced profile. High bitterness—roasted, smoky, alcoholic, and woody—that lingers long yet remains well-balanced. Full, oily, thick, and warming mouthfeel; a beer meant for slow sipping that does not become tiring. Low carbonation.
