On tap at the brewery. Blonde, thin head. A bit cidery/industrial there’s a little bit of body, but overall it’s a fancy pale lager/ golden ale sort of thing that lets me down a bit.

375ml bottle into glass. Nose is acidic, almost vegetal. Pale amber colour with two finger white head. Tiny carbonation. Nice mineral water character. Clean light-bodied beer with metallic hop finish. Those CUB cooked vegetables are lurking in the background. Not a pale ale.

(Bottle) Clear pale golden with short-lived thin head. Not much aroma: hints of damp cardboard, iron and maybe stone-fruit. Light body, rather fizzy. Unusual taste, but not unpleasant, quite crisp and uncomplicated. There’s a nice balance of fruitiness and subtle sweetness and some crisp but slightly metallic bitterness in the finish. I didn’t enjoy the first taste, but then it started to grow on me, however after a while it seemed rather artificial. Drinkable, refreshing, but a bit odd.

375ml bottle. Pours a pale yellow colour, foam white head leaving some lacing and malty aroma with grain & straw. Taste is sweetish malt with some hay, grain and a spicy bitterness. Creamy mouth feel, light bodied, medium carbonation, dry almost metallic bitter finish. OK

Pours amber with a small quickly fading head.Nose shows grainy malt with a hint of spicy hops. Very light on.Flavours show some grainy malt with slight sweetness before a very dry metallic bitter finish (POR?).Body feels very watery, carbonation is pretty high.

It’s been 15 years since I had this: when young and poor I drank it all the time as it was the same price as VB and other truly awful beers. Then they priced it alongside decent Euro lagers and I stopped. Anyway: Bottle. Pours gold, modest white head. Some lacing. Mild aroma of malt, hay and citrus. Moderately sweet malts with decent bitterness for the style. Dry, vaguely citric finish with some salt. Still better than other Australian macros and still an OK beer on a hot night.

(Can 37,5 cl) Pours a clear, golden with a neat, white, lacing head. Sweetish malt aroma. Medium-bodied, a little low in carbonation with sweet notes of malt, brewing cereal and an edge of cardboard. There’s actually a discreet whiff of hops in the finish and also some alcohol presence. But Pale Ale? Not really. 240108
