33 cl. bottle @ home, gift from Jeremy. Light hazy pale golden with a thin white head. Grainy aroma with some faint skunky hops. Bitter taste without anything much going on at all.

After a Cass on the plane, it's nice to find a Kiwi beer in Korea.

Bottle 330ml (BB 10.02.2018). Delicate hazy yellow-orange colour. Small and short, white head. Aroma is poor with delicate, fruits note and a liitle bit malt behind. There is small to medium, herbal bitterness, quite nice overall. Beer is light, even a little bit watery, sweet-malty and excluding the bitterness, no more happens. Good to drink in hot day but definitely nothing special, rather poor NZPA and I'm disappointed with my first drunk New Zealand beer. I hope it will be better next time.

Pint at Bluestone Room. It looks ok, cloudy with a decent head, but there’s not much nose and the taste is chalky more than anything. Not recommended.

330ml bottle into glass. Has a ’stale bread’ aroma with a whiff of nuts and hops. Cloudy golden beer with nice white head & a few bubbles. Zingy mouthfeel, cashew finish with a sour/bitter note right at the end. Easy drinking, refreshing, not bad.

From a 330ml bottle on 11/9/2015. Pours a slightly opaque golden with the barest of heads. Hasa very slight nose of fruit, grain and cardboard. Take a sip, and there’s a bit of sweet orange and peach, with a mild hop bitterness. The body is light and the carbonation lively. A just acceptable pale ale.

Bottle. Pale amber with a white head. 3- Aroma is mild and a bit mushy, but there’s some tropical fruit, grass and mandarins in there. A little bread, slight cooked vegies. Light bodied, carbonation is on the low side. Sweet and bready with mandarins some light tropical - passionfruit, pineapple - notes. Some minor unclean and muddled notes. Moderate bitterness. Nearly OK.
