Can. Hazy yellowish orange with a rocky cm of white head. Aroma of oranges, lime, greenish mango, pineapple, crackers, hints of coconut. A slight antacid feel to the fruity taste with a dry and slightly astringent moderately bitter finish.

Can. Even turned, it's barely misted golden amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of bread, peach, hints of apples, weeds. Sweetness that's a bit biscuity comes through gradually and is met by firmish weedy bitterness that lingers. Pretty convincing.

Can. Clear orangeish amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of pine, gooseberry & passionfruit, grass, breadcrust. Barely medium bodied with malt that's not quite enough of a platform for fruit, grass and greenish resinous bitterness. Vibrant but not complete.

Can. Clear red amber with a good inch of pale beige head. Fruity sticky bun aroma with caramel, citrus peel, stewed peach. Sweet singed toffee taste with sweetness lifted away with light fruit notes then moderate resinous bitterness. Not totally my thing but nicely enough done.

Can. Black with a cm of tan head that fades. Smells like Jaffas - maybe a little tickle of roast and caramel behind. When did you, an adult, last buy Jaffas? Pretty sweet with chocolate and zestier orange than guessed. The roasted notes are more than a tickle. Perhaps the oak dries things out a little at the end and along with some slightly spicy bitterness make for a tautish finish that worked well. Pretty good.
