Lightly unfiltered, light golden-yellow colour with a big frothy white head, good retention and thick, foamy lacing. A nice spiced nose with a light herbal touch, and hints of fruitiness. A light-bodied beer with a wet mouthfeel. Some mineral notes in the taste with a bit of citrus and grassiness. A good, crushable Session IPA that is overall not too light all-around, and offers some kind of kick.

Clean (light haze in the end), lighter golden colour with nice, lively carbonation, a white frothy cap, decent stay and some foamy lacing. Mild piney aromas with a base of caramel-cereal malts. A slick mouthfeel with some decent drying finish - not overly strong. A tad on the lighter side, but still has bite. Mild hoppy taste with grassiness, nice maltiness and resinous notes. An easy-drinking, refreshing West Coast Pale Ale that does what it needs to do.

Mid-hazed, golden colour with an orange highlight, a big creamyish white head, good retention and creamy lacing streaks. Mild fruitiness in the nose with stone fruits, some berries, a touch of herbs, yeast and oats. A wet mouthfeel with a good, slow building dryness. Maybe a tad more yeast in the flavours, but not to be annoying. Citrus notes, hints of tropical fruits and light grassiness, blending well with the zestiness. Feels a little more like a NEPA, than a NEIPA, with its lightness overall, but still a decent drink.

Hazy, golden-orange colour with a creamy-frothy, warm-white head, pretty good retention and thicker foamy lacing. Super fruity aromas with tropical-stone fruits, some orange juice, mild vanilla notes and hints of grassy hops. A juicy mouthfeel, kind of slick, creamy, with some nice building dryness. The citrus touch comes out more in the taste, over the other fruitiness. Some good blended bitterness and zestiness lingers. A very easy-drinking, Triple NEIPA with well-hidden alcohol, just enough zesty-bitter hook, and a nose that does not match the flavours as much... but that is all fine.

Enjoyed at the brewpub, Easter Saturday 2026. Poured a clean, golden colour with a creamyish white cap and nice lacing. Funky aromas with sourness, lemony notes and a touch of cider vinegar. A wet mouthfeel, somewhat crisp, with a soft dryness, mild tart and tannins in the end. Flavours are a nice blend of what's in the nose. Lemony sourness with some vinegar. A tad dandelion left on the tongue. Quite a nice, refreshing Saison that is all-around well-balanced.

Enjoyed at the brewpub on Easter Saturday 2026. Not sure it is the coffee version, but definitely the nitro (might of reviewed the Coffee-Nitro under the regular Sherley Mae, in 2018, as listed coffee notes). This one pours a real dark, blackish colour with no highlights, a beautiful creamy nitro head and some creamy lacing. Vanilla aromas over roasted malts, hints of chocolate and maple syrup. The vanilla is blending well and not overly rich, with the roasted-chocolate malts. Hints of wood lingering. A creamy mouthfeel with good dryness in the finish. Nice to try this on tap with the nitro.

Can that pours a fairly clean, golden colour with an amber hue. The frothy warm off-white head has good retention and sticky-foamy lacing. Mild piney aromas over caramel malts, some decent tropical fruity notes and hints of funk. A silky mouthfeel with some nice dryness in the end. Flavours are the same as the nose. A good West Coast Pale Ale with a balance of resinous hops, caramel malts and a touch of fruitiness.

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a frothy-bubbly, off-white cap, decent retention and nice sticky-foamy lacing. Big juicy aromas with the citrus, tropical fruit notes and a touch of white wine grapes. A creamyish mouthfeel, but not overly thick, with a nice, slow building, mild dryness. Flavours continues with the full fruitiness, juiciness and a tad herbal-grassy notes. Quite an easy-drinking, Triple NEIPA with just a little booze, and loads of juicy fruitiness.
