5/11/2022. Can bought at BWS Kirribilli, enjoyed on the rooftop of Rydges. Pours clear golden amber with a large fluffy white head. Aroma of stone fruits, citrus, grapefruit, tropical fruits, light herbal weedy notes. Moderate sweetness and bitterness. Light body, watery, average carbonation. Basic XPA.

Pours pale amber with a quickly fading head.Nose shows light cookie dough-like notes, soft floral hops and a hint of caramel.Very similar flavours, more of the same but with some grassy hops too, along with a slight grainy note.

375ml can into pint glass. From BWS, Glen Innes. Pours a hazy amber with many tiny bubbles and a large head of white foam. Distant aroma of orange peel and malt. Sharply bitter in taste and texture, watery and hollow in the finish. Lingering citric bitterness but no backbone.The low ABV undoubtedly accounts for the light body which is a shame because otherwise this would be quite an acceptable pale ale.
