    The beer pours a translucent orange gold colour with a long lasting white head. The aroma is grains, citrus, and honey. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is butterscotch and grainy. No fruit flavours that I can tell.

    The beer pours a slightly hazed golden-red colour with a thin off-white coloured head. The aroma was fresh bread, toffee, and herbs....but nothing citrusy. The mouthfeel was light to medium bodied with less than average carbonation. The flavour was awful...to put it mildly. Hints of caramel at the start, followed by notes of dirty water, with a bitter metallic finish. No lemon in the taste for me either. Not one to buy again.

    The beer pours a sold raspberry red with a very thin white ring for a head. The aroma is sweet and tard raspberries and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with above average carbonation. The flavour mimics the aroma,with both sweet and tart raspberry flavour. Very well done.

    The beer pours a hazed golden orange with a generous long lasting off-white head and plenty of effervescence. The aroma is funk, tart citrus, grains, and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with higher than average carbonation. The flavour is funky wheat, with hints of citrus and spices. Didn't live up to the hype.

    The beer pours a hazed copper colour with a rocky head. The aroma is caramel, citrus, and dishsoap. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour was caramel, grapefruit, and grains. The best Hop City beer yet

    The beer pours a hazed watermelon gold colour with a generous bubbly white head which lingers as it slowly dissipates. The aroma is wheat, grains, yeast, and funk. Not a whiff of pineapple. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is wheat, cloves, citrus, and hints of pineapple,and funk. It tastes better than it smells.

    The beer pours a hazed golden orange colour with a generous off-white head which dissipates slowly. The aroma is citrusy hops, pine, light fruit, and grass. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is pine, grains, and a punch of sweet citrusy hops at the end. Flavourful describes it nicely.

    The beer pours a heavily clouded golden colour with a short-lived white head. The aroma is salt-water, followed by light grains, and weak fruit tones. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is very salty, with hints of sour grains, yeast, and citrus. Interesting, but not something I would try again.

    The beer pours a burnt brownish red with a thin white cap. The aroma is caramel, spicy hops, light fruit, and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is caramel, lemony bitterness with a hint of cereal malts. There is supposedly New Zealand hops, but I didn't taste them.

    The beer pours a dark rasberry red, almost black, with absolutely no head. The aroma is raspberry, alcohol, and grass. The mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is medicinal raspberry, alcohol, and grains. Not a favourite.
