(Can, but now 5.6%) Pours hazy deep amber with small wide head. Pine aroma. Medium body with fine prickly carbonation. Taste has hops from start to finish, nicely and subtly balanced with caramel malt. There’s some pleasant hoppy bitterness in the finish, but quite restrained considering the dominance of hops through the palate. Very enjoyable.

330ml bottle into glass. Goodwood Hotel, Adelaide. The nose is full of hoppy goodness, lots of piney resin. Golden amber beer with a solid head of white foam. Patchy lacing. Slight haze with streams of fine bubbles. Hoppy, bitter, dry, light body. As it warms, more background malt becomes apparent. Nicely balanced with smooth carbonation makes this surprisingly easy to drink. Nice IPA.

Great name. Bottle. Amber with an inch of near white head. 3+ Aroma of sticky bread crusts, pine, kumquats. Moderately sweet with bread, caramel and peach. Citrus and pine come in and build towards the fairly strongly bitter end. Resinous and a bit spicy. Can't see a date but clearly fresh. A bit lumbering but pretty solid.

Level 42 Bottleshare. Thanks to Big Dave Wingman. Light haze on this gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry. Decent fine carbonation. Smooth pale malts, a little rye character. Touch of sweetish caramel. Mildly bitter floralness. Light finish. Not really showcasing the hops is it?

Bottle at level 42 (thanks to Dave). It pours hazy amber with a thick white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, juicy, candied citrus peel, peach, apricot and nectarine. The taste is smooth, rich, apricot, nectarine, orange squash, candied peel, soft alcohol, straw and spice. Medium body and soft carbonation. A touch sweet perhaps. Pretty OK.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Davy. Pours mostly clear gold with a fluffy, white head. Restrained aroma, some pale crackers, rindy citrus. Light sweet flavour, dry and pithy, some paper, lemon peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Dry finish, with more pithy citrus, melon, rindy bitterness. So so overall.

From a 330ml bottle on 12/10/2014. Pours a slightly cloudy deep golden with a biggish head. Features a very pleasant aroma featuring lots of passionfruit and floral notes. Flavour wise, it’s quite fruity (curiously, mostly melon) against a mild caramel malt background, which is followed by a strong, almost blunt, lingering bitterness which hangs on to the back of the tongue for dear life. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. This is an odd and slightly agricultural brew, but is not without its charms.
