So, I'm moving house and while packing, a piece of paper falls out of a book. It's a beer rating! No way! It's from NZ, I haven't been there for 3 years so here is a rating from the past.
Pint on tap at The Institution, Christchurch. It's a copper/red beer with a thin white head and high fine carbonation. Aroma of berries and pine. Flat mouthfeel, bitter taste with lots of pine resin. Earthy, bitter, nutty, finish with hints of perfume. Oh yeah, lots of pine. Piney and good.

500ml bottle. Pours dark orange brown. Biscuit, orange peel, prunes, big juicy orange and synthetic cherry and some almond at the end. Good full body. Very nice.
