(Can) Pours clear golden with tiny white head. Great aroma of pine and citrus. Light body with good carbonation. Nice balanced, hop driven flavour. There’s fruit up front, gentle biscuit malt in the background and some good hop bitterness giving a long finish. Very drinkable IPA.

375ml can into pint glass. From BWS, Glen Innes. Hazy amber beer with light carbonation and sticky white head. Nose of tropical fruit and umami. Good viscous body, bitter and zingy in the mouth. Finish is herbal with pine and caramel notes. Nice understated IPA.

This is a well made IPA with lovely aromas, but it doesn't stand out. there are notes of pine, honey, peach and biscuit. In the mouth, the honey and pine prevail, but the malt backbone is slightly weak and the length is quite short. Nice but not memorable.

Can. Clear amber with a large white head. 3+ Floral aroma with kumquats, bread crust. Pretty sweet with bread crust and some peach before tenor register citrus oozes through towards the bitter end. Solid, but bb is next month and it's worth another visit fresher.
