25/10/2022. Can bought at Pyrmont Cellars (Porters Liquor) Pyrmont. Pours clear pale golden orange with a small frothy white head. Aroma is hoppy, tropical, citrus, orange, grass, light herby, weedy and resin notes. Medium sweetness and moderate bitterness. Medium body, oily, average carbonation. Nice developing bitterness in finish. I think the best XPA tagged beer I’ve had in this trip.

On tap at Hopscotch, Melbourne. Golden with a white head. Kind of mild with hops, some pineapple and light malt. Fairly refreshing.

Bottled. A golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has notes of straw, malt, and spicy hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, spices, hops, and straw, leading to a bitter finish.

Pint on tap at Basement Brewhouse Bankstown. Crystal clear amber beer with thin white head. Hardly any carbonation. Aroma of malt and sweet lemon. Crisp and refreshing at first, flavour really develops later. Notes of earth and pine, a finish best described as 'sweet wood'. Excellent balance, bitter and sweet. Great easy-drinking ale.

(On tap) Clear yellow golden, small white head. Nice fruity aroma. Light body. Well carbonated. Fruity floral foretaste. Modest biscuity malt. Decent hoppy bitter finish. Nice IPA.

330ml bottle. Lemon, mango, chalky pear. Not much malt character but enough fruity hop notes to carry it. Pretty nice if a little uninspiring.
