650ml bottle split. Pours hazy pale golden with a slim white head. Aroma: grape juice, white wine, apple, floral. Taste: Moderate sweet & light bitter, dry, (white) winey, wheat, light citrus. Medium to full body, with fine carbonation. An interesting beer/champagne hybrid nicely done

Big bottle from Mother Kelly online. Pale opaque colour with a thin almost no head. Aroma slight cider yeast and hint of citrus. Dry winey to light sweet. Wow love it.

(Bottle) Pours hazy straw with fine thin white head. Aroma is very pleasant - grape juice and wine with hints of something slightly chemical (emulsion paint). I don’t think I would have taken it as champagne by aroma, but I would probably have guessed white wine rather than beer. Quite a lot of body, and rather sticky, with fine carbonation. Excellent for a strong beer, but quite a stretch from champagne, more like a (sparkling) desert wine. Taking the taste in isolation, it’s a fare imitation of champagne. The yeast and lactic notes and the grapes are quite convincing. Perhaps there is too much sweetness at the start. And at the finish, even though the bitterness is low for a beer, it isn’t right for champagne. There’s also some distinct alcohol burn towards the end. Having said all that, the taste is very enjoyable and unusual. Very unusual beer, and great to drink.

From a 330ml bottle on 19/11/2015. Pours the lightest straw with a small head. The nose is all champagne. Take a sip and it’s surprising sweet, with more than a hint of apple juice, some pear and touch of banana. Has a touch of champagne sour/tart, but it’s relatively subdued. There’s a hint of alcoholic heat, and no bitterness to speak of. The texture is very slick and the carbonation is soft. Much more palatable than champagne, and an interesting oddity, but there are better Moon Dog’s out there.

Pours pale gold with a fading head.Nose shows grapes, passion fruit, lychee and white wine.Boozy flavours, but there’s some more of the fruit before the cloying, sweet, and boozy finish rolls through.Definitely hits the mark in replicating champagne...

Bottle, 7C. Pale yellow with a slight green tinge. White head fades a bit, but sticks around longer than mousse does. And the aroma is pretty convincing too - crackery, slight yeast, grassy melony blanc de blancs notes. No heady boozy notes though. All _very_ clever. And then not so great. Sweet, grainy and a bit husky with moderate but rough bitterness. Some grass and gooseberries. The soft creaminess of Champagne that was almost convincingly aped in the aroma doesn’t really come through in the texture. Holds the alcohol remarkably well. This is really clever and for me a more rewarding drink than a ~ $A35 bottle of sparkling wine, but I don’t love it.
