Tap at Billies. Hazy pale yellow. Oats, dry grain husks, zesty hops, grapes, kiwi, dank weedy hops. Medium sweet and bitter. A bit weird.

Rocky white head on hazy pale lemon coloured body. Mango, exotic fruits & bubble gum aroma. Medium bodied, smooth & creamy with a clean back. Mango, nectarine, white wine, oat & citrus tastes with a zesty finish. That's nice.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, a mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth malts, sweet enough. Light but crisp cooling pine. A surprisingly modest citrus hop profile, Motueka lime is here but somewhat recessed. Mild piney orange and mandarin. Hop spice starting to nibble and a savoury hop on the rise as well but really not that skunky. Light crisp finish. Curious brew. Clearly quite some hops here, the spice lingers on but the hop fruit flavours are not very forward.
