Unashamedly pumped full of American hops, this pale ale strikes a fine balance between uncompromising character and sessionability. Vibrant notes of stonefruit, citrus and pine introduce a beer that is as flavourful as it is smashable.

(Can - 4.8% now) Pours clear pale golden with decent white head. Good aroma with citrus and notes of pepper, pine, and biscuit. Medium body with excellent full carbonation. Good taste too. Nice citrus notes at the start continue well into the palate. Pepper spice building steadily. Pleasant restrained bitter finish. Biscuit malt hovering in the background. Very good.

Can at Scugnizzo restaurant, Melbourne. A quaffable IPA that felt slightly on the sickly sweet side of the pale ale category. Light looking.

From a 375ml can on 26/12/2019. Pours a clearish medium golden with a small uneven head. Has a modest fruity and grassy nose. the tsate is biscuit malt with some medium sweet orange and mandarin. The hops give a medium bitterness which lingers on the back of the tongue. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A decent enough pale with perhaps a bit more bite than average.

Can for #ratebeersupertasters. Amber. Bit of biscuit on nose. Pretty straight down the line pale, with just enough stone fruit to balance the malts.

Bottle from Taps Beer Bar, Chamgkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is grassy hop, light pine needle, light citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter with a light crisp woody hop, light dry yeast palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Refreshing but the hop combination didn’t really work for me.
