(On tap) Clear amber with tiny white head. Fruity aroma with caramel notes. Medium body with fine light carbonation. Like the aroma, fruity and caramel. Some nice bitterness. Very drinkable.

Pint on tap at Brew, Rotorua. Golden amber beer with a thin white head. Light fruity nose, a few bubbles. Good lacing. Slight sparkle, early metallic bitterness. Caramel and herbal earth in the finish. Possibly too interesting for a session beer.

On tap at the Craft Beer Pub, Rotorua. A pale amber pour with a thin white head; a nice balance of fruity hops with a biscuity malt body; full of taste, with a lingering bitter finish.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a yellowish head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and spicy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, spices, citrus fruits, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.

On tap. Lots of resin, hops and a little caramel. Flavour is overly bitter, and the aftertaste is a little metallic. Not great.

From a 500ml bottle on 12/3/2011. Pours a light amber. Has a distinct fruity and caramel malt aroma, with a hint of pine. The flavour is dominated by caramel malt and citrus fruit, with a good hop kick at the end. This is a very nice APA.

Pours dark amber with a large, lasting head.Nose shows fruity and grassy hops... and weed... First beer I’ve ever said that about. The fruit is mainly apples and pears, but what really shines through in the aroma is the malt; loads of sweet caramel, toffee and cookie dough-like characters. Quite enticing.The malt continues to dominate as a flavour with very similar characters and perhaps even a hint of toasted malt. Unfortunately there’s more than a hint of hot alcohol mixing in with the resinous, sharp finish.Carbonation could be upped a little to cut through the sweetness.

Bottle, 500ml. Amber with a thick beige head. Aroma of grapefruit, pine, nectarine, passionfruit. Taste has mild caramel sweetness and a little biscuit. A little nectarine. Hop aromatics are not all that fruit-salady (a plus for me) - mainly grapefruit with a little pine and grass. Bitterness is balancing but lingers nicely. It’s intriguing how the hops are very American but still so clearly Kiwi.
