On tap at GoodLife, pours a clear bright pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is wonderfully vinous, with plenty of red wine grape must, lovely bugs, and woody barrel notes. Flavour is complex, with a wonderful grape must character, which combines beautifully with the bretty bugs, and woody wine barrel character. Buggy and vinous finish. Excellent.

On tap at GoodLife, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Nose is full of resinous hops, caramel malt and dried dark fruit. Flavour is on the hoppier side despite this being advertised as English-style — there's rich resinous hops, caramel malt and dark dried fruits. Big n bold but balanced beautifully. Excellent.

On tap at GoodLife, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out plenty of piney hops upfront, with some sticky resins and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is smooth and piney, with a really soft piney hop character, some citrus tang, and crisp biscuity malt. Smooth, tangy and piney. This is excellent.

Draft at Diablo & Sons. Clear golden with a thick, creamy off-white head, rings of lacing. Aroma is light, woody pine. Taste brings in a nice base of caramel malts, but still focuses on the soft piney, hoppy flavors. Sunday Vibes for sure.

Growler from Bert's. Clear golden, small cap of creamy white head. Hoppy, piney aroma, earthy, some astringency. Taste opens with a resiny hop blast, then turns over to some mildly sweet malts, creamy and smooth. Lovely texture, not overly hoppy, and hides it's ABV well.

Grapefruit and some lime. Not a huge amount of character here but ok. Pretty thin on flavour. Light tangy finish with some rust. Golden pour with decent head. Can.
