Canned, courtesy of Miro B. shared with him and Max. Hazy yellow, medium white head. Nice hoppy aroma. Dank, melon, tropical fruity, some moderate sweetness, nice bitter finish. Soft texture. Medium bodied.

Can from Eltham Wines. Hazy gold pour with a white head. Very nice nose of mango, papaya, pineapple, peach, banana. Bucket loads of sweet fruit. Taste is mango, pineapple, peach - a cavalcade of sweet juicy fruit, spot of pink grapefruit in there too. Light bitterness in the close.

Can. Hazy yellowish gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Smooth and soft palate, decent fine carbonation comes through on the back end. Fairly sweet malts, a light creamy sweetness. Whisper of something edging towards milky sweetness. A good level of hop spice here, nibbles away in a lively fashion. Smooth and semi sweet pine. Decent citrus, fairly bright but somewhat dry and well intertwined with the hop spice. Thought this was a bit sweet on the first few gob fulls, but as the palate adjusts, it is the hop spice that dominates, slight tang therein, mind. A touch of ripe tropical fruits on the finish. Lots of very good aspects here, and on paper it should be a 4 or a 4.1. But there is a lack of coherence here, that feeling that this an assemblage of parts, rather than a cohesive whole.
