Newtowner is a 4.8% beer in the style of a new Aussie pale ale made with Australian Pale and Crystal malts. It is finished with a trio of Australian hops, producing a golden, refreshing beer with a well-rounded malt and hop balance and a slightly dry finish. Perfect for Newtowners to enjoy this summer.

On tap at Young Henry's, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt and light floral notes. Flavour is clean, with biscuity malt and light hoppiness. Clean and easy drinking, with not much going on.

Can. Clear gold with a loose white head. Aroma of passionfruit, kumquats, melon, hay, some herbal notes. And then it’s a bit flat on the palate with some biscuit as well as hay and a finish that’s well off dry and not particularly bitter, The fruity hops almost disappear, leaving just some herbal and citrus notes. Seems a bit tired despite BB 10/16 - were the malt a bit tauter I can see this working very well. Not sure whether this is a polarising brewery or the canning is inconsistent.

Draft at the brewery. Amber, bright. Aroma is fresh, slight currant hop, balance, light toast, dash of earthy hop character. Very nicely balanced.

On tap at Pumphouse, Darling Harbour. Faint citrus nose. Slight hazy golden beer with solid white head. Active carbonation with many fine bubbles. Chalky mineral water feel with lemon sherbet taste. Finish has hops, grass, lemon, and caramel. Goes down well in the winter sun. Delicious.

Clear golden with a white head. Aroma is light citrus, lemony, and a bit of toasted malt. Flavor is much the same. Light bitter finish. Thin bodied. Good easy drinking ale for a night’s session.
