440ml can from School of Animals, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a crystal clear medium amber with a short-lived, frothy white head and a few champagne bubbles. The aroma is grainy malt, light toffee caramel. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a fresh, crisp, light herbal, resin, light metallic, light sweet toffee, light floral, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

Not quite clear amber with a cm of white head that lasts OK. Aroma of kumquat, lemon, honeyed biscuit, pine. And that's pretty much how it tastes - maybe there are some tropical fruit notes in there too. Quite sweet and honeyed with resin building towards the fairly bitter end. Non-committal rather than balanced.

(Can) Pours clear amber with tiny white head. Good aroma, mainly pine with some stone fruit. Medium body with good carbonation, great mouthfeel. Lovely taste. Fruity and refreshing at the start, with some peppery notes. Good light toffee malt in the mid palate. Pleasant bitter finish. Very nice.

A solid West Coast IPA with aromas of pineapple, pine needles and honey. There's a little ripe fruit when tasted. Colin's not bad, though I prefer Susan.

Draft. A hazy golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of hops, malt, citrus fruits, and a bit of pine. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, hops, pine needles, and citrus fruits, leading to a bitter finish.
