This is the second in a new series that explores beyond the new normal. Back in 2016, we helped change expectations in hoppy beer by working outside the box, stepping away from the safety of the familiar, and in this series, we're off for another mooch about.

Can at home picked up from 73 Enid Street.. A translucent golden orange coloured pour with a lasting loose white head. Aroma is semi sweet, nice light funk, orange rind, vanilla, farmyard grains. Flavour is composed of orange rind, tangerine, numbing orange spicy citrus. Pinch of salt, bready grains. Quite unique. More of this please.

Pours almost clear golden orange with a white cap. Dank, earthy herbal notes, bit of citrus, some orange, malt and caramel. Decent enough farmhouse vibe.
