Bottled. Golden colour with a mediumsizedwhite head. Aroma is grainy, some citrus and quite earthy tones. Flavour is grassy, mild parfumed soapy tones with some earth and mild grains to it. Bulkish feel, sadly.

Bottled #6313 (BB 01/2006)
Pale golden, good foamy white head. Hoppy, same time harsh, a bit rubbery nose. Mildy hoppy, some malts, harsh bitterness like in some cheap lager.

(Bottle 50 cl) Slightly hazy golden beer with a very small head. Lightly hoppy, floral nose. Incredibly dry and fresh with a rather pronounced bitterness in the finish. Medium body. No less than three malts and three hops. 110705

Bottle. Slightly cloudy, light golden colour. Big fluffy white head. Slightly fruity aroma. Light, fruity, bitter, maizy flavour. The bitterness is nice enough, but the beer overall is not very interesting.

Golden, clear beer with tall white head, reasonably stable. Faint hoppy nose, some pilsener malt; grassy hops, Czech or Southern German-like. Quite bitter Pilsener, in taste more Northern German than Czech, quite dry. Grainy taste retronasal, bit toasted. Faint burning sensation, rather light bodied, quite dry. That’s a good Pilsener, beats several German or Czech hands down. My bottle claims only 4.2% ABV

A golden beer with a disappearing head. The aroma is malty and quite light. The flavor is a little sour but also malty and with notes of straw and a hint of wheat.

Straw. Toasty hop nose with peaches and pears. Palate pretty much the same stuff. Still, it's great to get my hands on NZ micro stuff.

Bottled. Golden coloured with brief head. Big perfumy aroma. Odd, complex, dry, ashy maltiness. Fruity, bitter finish.
