Bottle. Very murky light orange with a coat of white head. Aroma of ripe and under-ripe quinces, pears, vanilla, pepper, fenugreek. Tastes really quite tart up front with some pear-like sweetness and spices. After the mouthful of fruit the taste falls away to just lingering spices. A little too much fruit for the beer, I think - the intial tartness of the quinces is too much for what comes after. But it’s refreshing and a very good soft cheese beer. Pretty bold stuff from an Australian brewer.

Bottle at the Chriso Gaylord tasting 09. Hazy orange gold colour with lasting beige head. Wheaty and slight spice in the mouth. Soft in the mouth. Some carbonation sting on the swallow. Bit of hop on finish. Soft and fine and very drinkable.
