With aroma popping from the glass akin to a tropical fruit bowl just begging you to have a taste! Our golden ale carries malt sweetness upfront with moderate bitterness finishing dry to make this beer a delightful thirst quencher!

On tap at Rocks Brewing, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out light hopping and biscuity malt. Flavour brings out biscuity malt and light hopping. It's alright, nothing special.

Draught at the Woolly Mammoth, Brisbane on 4th September 2015. Pale gold with thin white head and spot lacing. Fine grapefruit citrus aroma. Grass and grapefruit in-mouth, and a fruity finish. Zingy mouthfeel and light body. A tasty golden ale.

Pint on tap at Harts Pub. Strong fruity citrus nose. Golden beer with thin white head. Flat and chalky in the mouth. Zingy juicy fruit finish. Late malt balances it beautifully. Really good.

From a 330ml bottle on 31/10/2013. Pours a relatively clear golden with a medium to large fluffy head. Has a mild but pleasant aroma featuring stone fruit and passionfruit. There’s not much malt evident but there’s lots of zesty citrus fruit and a bit more stone fruit sweetness, finished off by quite a firm, almost tart hop finish. Has a medium body and carbonation. This is a quite solid golden ale, with quite a bit of character for only 4.5%.

Tap. Pale hazy yellow, white head. Faint aroma with pears, wheat, spices. Little malt, some wheat, peach and citrus, quite sharp pepper at the finish. Pleasant quaffer.
