Tap at CBM JInbocho Terrace. What's going with the name?! Not much going on. Bitter, bit earthy, twiggy. Possibly a hint of citrus but only a hint. Not as I expected. Don't really get any of the three disparate elements suggested in the name.

On tap at CBM jimbocho terrace. Clear golden brown color with a soapy off white head. Aromas of malt and grain with some butter (diacetyl?) and weird yogurt nose. Taste is like chewed bread and slightly grainy with a rotten fruit sweetness. Very sweet on the palate. Super creamy with a heavy body. It’s like drinking wet bread. Something’s off....not good. --- Beer merged from original tick of Australian Summer Christmas IPA on 01 Jul 2015 at 17:54 - Score: 4
