This Australian dry-hopped lager is a communal beer brewed to be enjoyed by all. Let it remind us of simpler, friendlier times when people had more freedom – and were able to enjoy cruising on their classic bike in sand-shoes, shorts, t-shirt and no helmet!
"Cheers, Dad, for the inspiration ’to have a crack’!" Brewed with Ella and Vic Secret Hops.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Tom L's place. Thanks troubles. Golden. Fruity hops, slightly stale, graininess, malt, a bit bready, slightly sweetish, bitterish finish. Easy-drinking.

Tap at the Boilermaker House, Melbourne. Poured a clear medium amber with a thin broken white head. The aroma is big skunky floral light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a malty watery, lIght sweet, floral hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Dont waste your money.

330ml bottle into schooner glass. Funky fruity hop aroma, a touch metallic. Hazy pale yellow with thin solid white head. Medium carbonation, tiny bubbles. Light body, zingy. Finish is malty, fruity, hoppy, everything a good lager should be. Easy drinking and moreish, really nice.

Bottle, 7C. Pale gold with a white head. Shy but pleasant aroma of lychees, crackers, some oranges and pine needles. Rather watery. Pretty bland with very thin malt presence. And that makes the middle of it just a hole for the fruit to fall through. The pine needles and a pepper fare a bit better and are there at the dry and slightly bitter finish. Disappointing.
