37,5cl bottle at Dingo in Hoi An. Light hazy golden with a nice white head. Lightly fruity aroma with citrus, hints of tropical fruits, malt. Lightly sweet and fruity with a dry and slightly bitter finish. Very pleasant in the heat. Nice change from the SFA lagers.

Bottle, murky light orange colour, small long lasting head, aroma of herbs and soapy skunky notes, with some biscuity notes and a hint of honey, light malty honey sweetness with just a hint of apple and citrus with a coarse bitterness. This a quite a "lagery" ale and not to good as that.

Bottle. Somewhat hazy golden with a small white head. Fresh aroma with floral hops, grassy notes, yeast, mellow fruitiness and some pale malt. After a few more whiffs the aroma seems more fruity and yeasty - almost like a wheat beer. Sweetish flavor with some malt, fruitiness, light graininess and a mildly bitter finish with slightly spicy hops and sourish notes. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Refreshing, should be very nice on a hot summer day.

One of many Christmas present beers and my first Australian rate I believe. Pours hazy orange with thin soapy head. Tastes of grain, light malt, citrus, and pine. It’s plenty bitter and takes me back to when I lived in Melbourne for 7 months back in 2002 so a couple points for nostalgia.

Aroma: Bread notes. Dank, musky smell.

Appearance: Orange and cloudy. White head that fades quickly. Small flecks of yeast. Very little carbonation and no lacing to speak of.

Taste: Yeast flavour with a slight spiciness. Extremely boring.

Palate: Weak bodied. Short, slightly bitter finish.

Overall: A very disappointing beer almost totally lacking in flavour.

Bottle @ Cafe Buitenlust, Oirschot. Pretty average in every way: color, smell and taste very similar to standard pilsener. Not much more to tell.

33cl bottle. Cloudy yellow with a decent head. Many little black specks of yeast suspended near the bottom of the glass. The nose is malty and fruity maybe a hint of apples or grapes, but malt is the main aroma. The taste is of more malt but there is a bitter citrus finish. The palate hss a medium structure, the texture is fairly substantial and there is a long dry finish. Overall, not a world-beater but a balanced refreshing summer ale, I think. Definitely serve chilled and pour all sediment into the glass.

Bottle. Straw, light apple aroma. Hazy golden, low head. Sparkly mouthfeel, light body. Straw malt base, fine fruityness (apples, avocado). Earthy and grassy hoppyness. All in all cood balance and pleasant thirstquencher.

Hazy yellow color, whitish foamy small head, citrusy flavor, fizzy bland body, abrupt finish. Not a memorable beer.
