Pint on tap at Peggy Gordon’s, New Plymouth. Golden beer, foamy white head, zero carbonation. Excellent aroma. Nutty sweet with background fruit. Nice lacing, flat mouthfeel. Bittersweet fruit finish, late pepper, lemon, and dank hops. Nice beer.

Deep clear gold body with heavy carbonation and little foam, strong sweet hops on the nose. Flavour is strong bitter hops. Nice oily mouthfeel. A heavy IPA but not bad in that sense if a little overbearing and simple.

On tap at Bin 44, Auckland. Rather subdued when compared to the Boneface Hoptron I'd had immediately before, but nevertheless a pleasant APA with some citrus and a biscuity malt base.

On tap at the tap room. Peach, lemon, biscuit, caramel. Fairly standard APA, but quite well done.
