Poured from 375mL bottle (bb 10/06/2027). Clear blond gold with minimal white head. Mild Riesling notes with soft funky tartness, decent. Generally prefer the red grape varietals over the white grape varietal meerts beers.

Poured from 473mL can (stamped Aurora #1; Mar18). Clear pale blonde with small white head. Mild berry hops with some feint grapefruit hop notes, clean, but bland crackery lager base. Very mild bitter finish. Lighter bodied. Okay.

Poured from 473mL can. Very dark brown with small beige head. Huge coffee forward character, intense cold brew, coffee bitterness on the finish. Would love a bourbon barrel aged version. A little bit one note, but all around well done.

Poured from 473mL can (stamped Bountii #5; Jan25). Black with small beige head. Mild cacao, decent swath of coconut (though verges on suntan lotion coconut), very feint vanilla. It's a touch artificial, but decent. Definitely Bounty bar inspired.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 30/12/22; bb 30/12/26). Clear deep gold with minimal white head. Slightly soured honey with feint pepper character and touch of salt with light booze on the finish. It's as advertised, but don't really think this combo goes together - it oddly grows on you though. Okay.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Clear pale blonde with dissipating white head. White wine forward like a pinot gris, feint saison yeast in the background. Prefer this white grape character over its red grape sister Kismet.
