Pleasant, mellow pale ale. Zesty, tropical fruit, a little dry hop, melony and slightly floral finish. Fine but not memorable.

Clear amber, filmy head. Light zesty fruit, a bit of hop and a smooth maltiness. Not special but very drinkable.

330ml bottle from BWS, Rockdale Plaza. Golden colour, foamy white head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of fruity apple. Taste is sweetish, fruity apple, then tangy and citric. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry citric finish. Quite OK.

Bottle listed as a 3.5% session. Golden and hazy with a light, tangy fruit smell. Pleasant enough flavour. Lightly hopped with some sweet fruit and something tangy, lemon or lime maybe. Slightly bittersweet finish. Pretty bland but it's alright.

Bottle bought from an online antipodean supermarket. Sweet banana and clove aroma. Slightly hazy light brown. Thin translucent white head. Light bitter with a sweet edge. Banana and cloves. But muted and shandy like. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat carbonation. Slightly astringent finish. An old bottle discovered in the in-laws' fridge but I see comments are generally not great and remember being unimpressed when it was fresher. Weak here.

Glass at GABS, Sydney. Brown beer with a thin white head. No carbonation. Nose is sweet, fruity like cola. Light, easy drinking. Sparkly, great quencher. You could slam a few of these quick smart.

Schooner on tap at some Melbourne pokie den while watching EPL. Golden bronze with a thin white head. Caramel fruit nose. Light body. Fresh tart apple taste with a finish full of umami. Not horrible, thankfully not a sugar bomb.

On tap at Barnbougle. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has earthy corn and wet straw with a bit of bread underlying. Flavor has straw and grain with a bit of sweet corn underlying.
