11.2 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a tiny white head and poor retention. No lacing. Sweet malt aroma. Very good, basic lager flavor with no Euro sulfur notes. Clean and smooth. Lightly sweet. Crisp and refreshing. Medium body and medium carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected.

440ml can from M&S in London, England. Pours a pitch black color with a thick, light tan head and very good retention. Decent lacing. Dark roasted malt aroma. Very dark roasted flavor too. Nice caramel notes and lactose with enough bitter dark chocolate flavor for balance. Medium body and medium carbonation. Light bitterness. And the 8.0% ABV is really well hidden. Really good beer, and easily one of the best imperial stouts I've ever had.

19.2 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours an opaque gold color with a very large off-white head and annoyingly great retention. Very good lacing too. Lots of floaties present. Canned on 12/18/23. Thanks again, Total Wine! Citrus and booze aroma. The taste follows the nose, but both the citrus and booze flavors are more subtle than expected. Tired tangerine notes. Medium body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. The 9.0% ABV is well hidden. Might actually be good if it was fresh.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury's, London, England. Pours a clear bronze color with a khaki head and good retention. Good lacing too. Light bitters aroma. As expected, faint caramel flavor with some light bitters in the finish. Fairly mellow overall. Easy drinking. Smooth and clean. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Low, soft bitterness.

440ml can from Waitrose, in Bath, England. Pours a hazy gold color with a bright white head and good retention. Decent lacing. Light bready aroma. Pretty standard pale lager flavor, with less bready notes than the aroma. Really clean, smooth, and refreshing. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Low bitterness. Very enjoyable.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a clear bronze color with a small khaki head and decent retention. No lacing. Caramel malt aroma. The taste follows the nose with caramel malt flavor dominant and not much else. Good flavor, even though it's one dimensional. Medium-light body. Slick texture. Very low carbonation. Almost flat. Not bitter. Tastes more like a flat Vienna lager. I like it, but it could be a lot better.

330ml can from Waitrose, in Bath, England. Gluten free. Pours a semi-clear, super light yellow color with a large white head and great retention. Decent lacing. Light artificial lemon aroma. Similar light lemon and grain flavor. Very weak lager flavor. Not beery enough. Light body. Lower than expected carbonation. Not bitter. It's better than a n/a beer, but not by much.
