Pale amber colour, bright, with a thin head. Tart, lots of lactic, slight sweetness. The fruit is decent, blends in well with the lactic.

Dark brown, inky pour, no head. Toasty, little coffee, touch of maple syrup. Thick, low carbo, lots of chocolate. Mellow maple and vanilla. Rich but simple, still solid.

Amber-brown. No head. Bubblegum aroma is not good. Light body for dbk, weak, just a poor example, too light and lacking malt richness. One of those beers you have at Downtime and you're not sure how long it's been sitting around, but you're pretty sure it's been a while.

Greyish murky silty river colour. No head. Not great - some piney notes but muddled malt and some odd oniony, phenolic notes.

I doubt it was 2024, but it was a WC IPA 3-Way with Brujos and Ghost Town. Gold colour, bright, no head. Minty, herbaceous hop nose, lots of bitterness, clean balanced malt, some berry notes.
