When you see that bottle with 70’s style all over it you just have to try it, even though your expectations are low. But I was pleasantly surprised, it’s not a bad effort from the Burleigh boys. Aroma of hops, resin, citrus with a nice bitter finish.

From a 330ml bottle on 22/1/2011. Has a nice floral and passionfruit aroma, not unlike Little Creatures Pale. Flavour wise, there’s more passionfruit, and a bit of honey, followed by a long and quite pronounced lemony sour bitterness. Not a bad effort, though could be a bit better balanced.

Pours orange/amber with a lasting head.Nose shows lots of juicy fruits, lychee, pear, apple, orange blossom... very sweet. Underneath is honey and a little caramel.Flavours are more malt-focussed, lots of bready, nutty characters. Finishes a little weakly. After a while some grainy malt surfaces.Body is a little light on.

Faux-distressed bottle. Clear amber with a small white head. Smells of nectarines, orange blossoms, lychees and a little pine. Tastes rather more pedestrian than it smells: there’s light caramel, some fruit and quite plain but firm bitterness. Plain-tasting and a little watery but pleasant enough. Good bitter finish.
