Golden-amber, slightly chewy, the malts are a bit chewy, but there’s some florals from the NZ, bubbly head, sweetish overall, leaning towards chewy, with just a touch of NZ hops. Decent beer

Well-balanced nothing-at-all beer. Not sure where it starts, where it begins, and it ends quick. Pours orange with good lacing, some head. Finishes a little sour with slight sweetness. On tap at Garrick’s Head.

Bottle. Golden, offwhite head. Nice fruity aroma, peach and orangepeel. Medium body, sparkly. Nice dry sparkly fruit notes, good with cheese.

On tap at GCBF. Pours a copper-amber with light head. Light hoppy aromas of grapefruit plus a good whiff of malts. Similar flavors. Hopping is relatively mild compared to many recent local IPAs but quite nice.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours a clear copper with a medium white head. Aroma if crystal, coppery malts - pretty stale nose. Flavour is quite metallic also, tasting quite stale, full of coppery malt. Not much character and not pleasant.

Golden color. Light aroma. Some malt flavor, crisp, simple, without a defined hop character.
More was expected by these 4 hops.
