Dark brown. Toastiness, light chocolate, medium body. It's fine, but this is not a lager brewery.

Is this Nate? It’s light, slight fruity. Decent bitterness, chocolate, very good stout.

Medium brown, sort of sludgey-looking. No head. The aroma is actually nice, a bit of dark fruit, light barrel. On the palate, lots of barrel that sort of clashes a bit with the datey malts. The alcohol is coming across too strong here, if lower this would be more cohesive.

Dark brown, no head. Sort of a toasty aroma. Palate is sweet, underhopped, some caramel, touch of coffee, not much body for 10%. Okay this has some ok malt development but nowhere near the malt or hop richness the style demands. It’s a poor man’s Baltic. I mean, it's their first impie so we'll see what happens next.

Opaque, medium head. Soft body, a bit creamy, moderately bitter, low kiwi hop note…probably needs more, and some bitterness would help it come across. Good beer, with a bit of potential left on the table.
