Can. Dirty amber with a coat of pale beige head. 3- Aroma of pine, grapefruit, bread. Bitter and resinous but with a soft bready malt that is enough to hold it without being heavy. Citrus and some peach stand out before pine kicks in with the bitterness at the end. Likeable but perhaps doesn't offer enough for 9.5%. Suggestion seems to be that there's a splash of Chardonnay juice in this - let's say if so it's very well integrated.

From a 375ml(?) can on 27/5/2018. Pours a murky dark golden with a smallish head. The aroma is fruity hops. I had the Hunter Harvest version the other day, which was lovely, and this is every bit as good. Really sweet and fruity - mainly peach, apricot and mango, with some tangerine. There are some big, firm hops to counter the fruit, which finish with a slight tang. The texture is lovely - slick and syrupy. A fantastic sweet DIPA.
