The new default in winter. Hits the right flavour notes and is the right amount of full body. |

Decent if the only one available, but not a go to regularly. Major Tom probably better. |

Somehow I think this one is just right during the summer. In winter its too thin |

Love the single and double Juiced AF. So soft to drink, but packs and awesome punch at the end. |

Extra light beer. I feel that when you are this kind of beverage you should own something else, rather than trying to be an IPA and never quite reaching the full body. |

Not as beautiful as Roman Candle, but smooth and will do a job in a pinch. |

Citrusy. Has a little bit of a zing while sipping. It's not a bad beer, it's just not a great one. |

This was surprisingly great. Soft, but had those subtle fruity notes in there as well. |

This one is pretty easy on the palette. It does have a citrusy aftertaste which I wish wasn't here, but pretty smooth. |

This is a nice little beer. Comes in a smaller package, 355ml, so feels lighter. Has a little bit of a zing at the end that I'm a little less happy about. |

As it says on the can, soft, limited bitterness. Mouthful. Has a little bit of a hit at the very end. |

Nope. My least favourite I've tried so far. Like the artwork, but really did not like the overall task. Thin and fizzy for my liking. |
