Can from Eskbank Trading. Milky golden body with a thick off-white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of peach, rhubarb and croissant. Flavour of orange and brioche. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. Well balanced and juicy. I’ve not had a Deya beer in a while and, based on how good this one is, I’ll be trying to pick up Deya beers more frequently.

Draft from Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is grainy, light citrus fruits. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a super fresh, somewhat light, smooth coconut, lime citrus, gooseberry, vinous, light dank, dry hop bitter palate and a bubbly mouthfeel. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

500ml can. Murky golden with a huge white head. Aroma of berries (strawberry?), white wine, gooseberry, dank. Taste is slightly sweet, berry fruits, gooseberry, white wine, a little dank, tropical, fairly low bitterness. Medium bodied. Really nice IPA yet seemed to focus more on Nelson than this new hop.

Can from The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Nose is passionfruit, peach, grapefruit, gooseberry. Taste is white grape, passionfruit, lime, gooseberry. Quite a sweet fruit linger. Mouthwatering fruits with a sharp hoppy bite.
