Hazy, pale, thin head. Lots of lemon, orange notes…bright zest…and some decent bitterness along with that.

Dark brown, thin head. All the speedway coffee, some vanilla. I can imagine the vanilla as well. More chocolatey than most speedways.

Black. This has a very rich dark chocolate umami to it. Big, full body. Not getting the cherry…did it drop off or was it never there? Still a rich, delicious stout.

Slight haze, and pale colour. Sort of phenolic, a bit grainy. Lightish body. Decent. Definitely a Bizarre beer; Dageraad is typically much cleaner. The 2nd recent cross-border collab for Bizarre, who came up for FHF last year.

Dull pale gold, slightly sticky malt, some bitterness, a bit piney, orangey. Maybe some nz hop notes but this feels more wc to me.

Pale tan, good head. Good balance, a bit of biscuity malt, moderate bitterness , and a fruity hop expression.
