Tap at Biero.Pours amber with a small fading head.Nose shows faint hops with floral and fruity characters alongside soft sweet malt.Similar flavours, herbal spicy hops first, then sweet clean malt and a mild bitterness.Carbonation is a little high.

Bottle. Pours honey gold with a white head. Grainy aroma with just a little citrus. Tastes sweet with honey and vague hints of peaches, oranges and apples. There’s balancing bitterness and a little sourness too. Finish seemed increasingly nicely hopped as I drank. Nothing special, but this would slip down a treat on a hot Mildura night.

From a 330ml bottle on 7/3/2010. This seems more of a golden ale than an APA to me. Has a decent citrus fruit aroma, which translates to the flavour, with the Amarillo hops giving it refreshing, summery feel (it has a touch of the Squire’s Golden Ale to it). Not a great beer, but above average and eminently drinkable.

Bottle. At the yellow end of the orange spectrum. Milky in opaquness. Smooth blend of flavours. Not overly citrussy with sufficient malt to drag it away from any witbeer leanings. Well worth trying another one.

Bottle. Poured hazy yellow / amber with no head. The aroma was sour, yoghurty with some bananas and lemon. The palate was light and fizzy. The flavour, like the aroma, was initially sour and yoghurty with a bready, yeasty finish with a hint of bitterness. I was very disappointed by this beer. I am wondering whether I had a bad bottle, when I read other’s comments. What I had didn’t do it for me.
