Similar to a West Coast IPA. Floral nose with notes of citrus and pine. Medium bodied with a nice punch of hops and a solid malt finish. Crankshaft won a silver medal at the 2017 International Brewing Awards. A great beer for lovers of big full flavoured brews - it cranks! Crankshaft was the highest ranked IPA in the GABS Hottest 100 Aussie Craft Beers Poll for 2018, for the second year in a row.

Can at on the train back from the Notts together now Bingohame bound, thanks to the competition winner Mark, 07/07/23. Moderately hazed golden amber with an off white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is bitter orange, grass, papaya, melon, soft malts. Taste comprises orange zest, citric tinged straw, light caramel elements, grass. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with mellow hop bitterness. Passable fayre ... comes over a little flabby.

A session IPA with a proper IPA ABV. I kept drinking this one chasing something more, but it just wasn't there. It has a pleasant nose of pine, honey, a little tropical fruit and a touch of biscuit. The taste is mostly mild bitter hops, leaving me wondering where all those lovely aromas went. It has a pretty short finish too.

On tap. Really surprised I haven't rated this before. Easy drinking, well-balanced. The hops are there but not superforward. Maltiness gives it legs in a session-drinking scenario.
