Sampled from the tap at The Taphouse. Pours a clear straw yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges and laces. Aroma has earthy grains and biscuit with some grass underlying. Flavor has grass, a touch of flora and sweet grains backing.

(Can) Pours cloudy pale golden with small but tenacious white head. Nice aroma - grapefruit and pine. Nice palate - light body, with good full carbonation. Taste starts a bit watery, with some muted but pleasant citrus notes and hints of pepper. Some nice hoppy bitterness slowly builds. Very drinkable.

Can. Just hazy pale gold with a modest white head. Aroma of passionfruit, grapefruit, herbs, underripe mango. 7+ Light bodied and rather fizzy. Quite sweet with soft biscuity malt and tropical fruit, then slightly resinous bitterness at the off dry finish. The bitterness builds after a few swigs and I liked the balance better - seemed less fruit punch-like. Solid drop.

Pint on tap at Pumphouse, Sydney. Hazy amber beer with creamy white head. Laces well. Medium carbonation. Faint lemon & malt nose. Spritzy, bitter and earthy. Dry herbal hoppy finish. Late lemon makes it nicely drinkable. Nice pale ale, not sure about the ’x’.
