Fermented and brewed like a lager, but hopped like a pale ale. Clean and crisp with a small amount of hoppy freshness for flavor. Slightly grainy with big notes of pine and grapefruit aroma.

Not particularly pretty, but the bright citrus and tropical hop notes pair well with the lager-leaning mild grainy sweetness, and lingering guava and papaya in the fade mix with a mineral bitterness and a hint of pine. Not bad.

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Hazyish orange colour, coarse head. Orangey nose with some lychee. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Fruity with tangerine and orange. Piney, mildly bitter finish.

Yellowish golden colour with a mediumsized foamy white head. Aroma is floral, some fruity, mild pine and earth to it. Flavour is floral, some grassy, mild biscuity and some sweet bready tones to it.

Tap at Beer Hunters. Golden colour and steady white head. Malty, spicey hoppy aroma. Light-bodied. Grassy, piney hoppy flavour. Lingering bitterness. Easy.
