(Can) Pours clear pale amber gold with tiny white head. Pleasant aroma of pine with citrus notes. Light body, well carbonated. Taste is pleasant but to me it is thin and almost watery. However there’s a nice fruity start, a hint of biscuit malt briefly in the middle and some hoppy bitterness develops for the finish. Easy drinking, sessionable.

Bottle at Slow Beer, Fitzroy, Melbourne. Poured a slightly hazy straw colour with a thin white head. The aroma is malt, dry yeast, grassy hop, light citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter with a crisp, woody, dry, light pepper spice palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

[11/14] Bottle. Pale amber with a large white head that lasts pretty well. Aroma of passionfruit, lychees, mango skin, lime leaf and biscuit. Light bodied, highish carbonation. Not very sweet, but very fruity - lots of tropical fruit, then unexpectedly zesty citrus takes hold towards a fairly bitter finish that is also fairly dry. Wow. [3.9][11/17] Can - days old apparently, bb 7/18. This is great really fresh but I won't be drinking this batch in December. Can. Switched to a packed on date (12/17). This batch a little oniony. Still following - and mostly liking - this one, but averaging score.
