Bottled at the brewery at a wedding reception. A golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flaovor is sweet with notes of malt and straw, leading to bitter finish.

Bottle in the auckland airport strata lounge. Middling white foam, clear gold body, heavy carbonation. Sweet lager hops on the nose. Flavour is deeper lager hops, slight biscuit.good mouthfeel, tingly carbonation. A nice lager, not exceptional but certainly a cut above.

330ml bottle. Drank from bottle. Floral, stone fruit, citrus, an almost almond like note in there. Prominent sweetness, but with almost enough bitterness to clean it up. Nothing too bad.

330ml bottle into schooner glass. Nose of malt and pepper. Slightly hazy golden beer with thin film on top. A few bubbles. Full bodied and flat in the mouth. Taste is a cleansing bitterness followed by a dry earthy hoppiness, some peppery raisin notes very late on. Excellent lager (more like a pils), moreish.

Bottle from Messrs Barley Malt & Hops, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a hazy straw colour with a broken frothy white head and a few bubbles. The aroma is skunky lager malt, some hops. The flavour is moderate bitter with a watery, light hop bitter palate. Light bodied with lively carbonation. It’s hard to imagine how this beer actually won any awards!

Dorada ligeramente turbia. Aroma con predominio de la levadura. En boca buen amargor, toque cítrico y algo metálico también. Pero el conjunto es agradable, refrescante y bebible.

Bottle: Pours slightly dirty gold, a little hazed....with a tall, cream-white head. Sweet, bready malt aroma. Taste is light fruit, bread. Mild, grassy hopping. Very light, but very flavourful. Nice.

Bottle. Slightly hazy gold with a fading white head. Light bready aroma with gooseberries,lemongrass, white pepper. Lowish carbonation, soft mouthfeel. Slightly sweet with crackers, some berry and peach notes, drying finish with modest bitterness. Lingering fruity/ spicy Kiwi hops. Refreshing and alive.
