A big beer with lots of Kiwi hops and all that you'd expect from them. First brewed in 2014 with Panhead and Firestone Walker. Rebrewed without the terribly stuck mash, as Yeastie Boys alone, in 2021.

Can from lowcostbeer, consumed 2 months before BBE. Hazy orange gold with two finger white head, nice retention. Aroma of mango, apricot, pine. Taste has a sharp sweet resinous fruitiness, pine and earthy bitterness, boozy. Full bodied, smooth. It's decent for the style.

330ml can from the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is mango, tropical fruits. The flavour is over moderate bitter with big piney, tart fruit, super dry, warm boozy, woody hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. A big beer in so many ways, but with so many competing flavours that didn’t sit well together.

Brilliant white rocky head on a hazy deep golden coloured body. Malt, apricot & orange aroma. Medium to full bodied, tingly with a smoother clean back. Bitter, resinous, orange & malt tastes with an extremely hopped up pithy finish. Overkill.

330ml can. Cloudy, orangey, bright golden colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, juicy, tropical fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of overripe tropical fruit of different sorts, mango, pineapple, lychee. Taste is sweet and bitter, juicy, tropical fruity hoppy, notes of overripe tropical fruit, some warming alcohol, mineral and chalky overtones; warming, alcoholic finish. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, soft, creamy carbonation. Too sweet and alcoholic - a bit over the top.
