From a 375ml can on 10/8/2019. Pours like murky apple juice with a nsmall head which dissipates super quickly. Features a fairly typical fruity, juicy NEIPA nose. Taste wise, you get some sweet citrus and trpical fruit to start, followed by a slightly harsh, spicy, soapy, herbal bitterness. Full bodied with average carbonation. Has been the subject of a bit of hype on social media, but I'm not sure why. It's a bit agricultural really. I've had numerous Aussie double hazies of late which are way better than this (eg. Supertrooper, Distributor, Squid Supremecy).

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Hazy Amber beer with a thin white head. High fine carbonation. Bitter fruit nose. Beautiful refreshing texture and taste. Passionfruit prominent. Dry pithy finish. Well made, no trace of alcohol. Big beer but easy drinking. Nice one.

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Dark beer with a thin white head. Creamy nose of dry cocoa and bandaids. Good lacing, light effervescence, bitter taste. Finish is dry fruit and bitter chocolate. You can taste medicinal herbs throughout. Nice, unusual IPA.

Can. Dark brown with a good inch of beige head. Choc-orange aroma with some bread, grapefruit and lychees. Just medium bodied, soft carbonation. Moderately sweet with citrus and tropical fruit, some chocolate. A little resin creeps in towards the fairly bitter finish. A lot of the Dark Harvest about this one. Which means it's really good.

Can. Clear amber with a large white head. Aroma of pine, caramelised oranges, bread. Not a lot of body or malt character for something quite strong, but fairly sweet with some stone fruit notes which give way to resin, citrus and some herbal notes at the firmly bitter end. Maybe slightly rough in a way that dry hopping can get in the finish. Solid.

Golden. Pine nose. Oily mouthfeel. Loads of caramel and honey paired with the resinous hops. A luscious sipper.

From a 375ml can on 15//2019 (ABV listed as 10.5 %). Pours a clear golden with a medium to biggish head. Has a surprisingly light, fruity nose with a few herbal notes. On the sip, it's big, sweet and syrupy - lots of caramel and sweet citrus, with a firm, quite resiny bitterness. It's a touch boozy but still pretty easy to quaff. Moderate carbonation. Has a few rough edges but pretty good.

375ml can into shaker. 10.5%. Hazy golden amber beer with light carbonation and a large foamy head. Nose has a lot of pepper and a little fruit. Full body, viscous and rich. Slightly effervescent in the mouth. Taste and finish start with caramel before an earthy herbal bitterness emerges. Late late lingering minty/caramel. Great beer, no sign of alcohol. Dangerously easy to drink.

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Golden amber beer with a foamy white head. High fine carbonation. Sharp bitter nose with hints of malt. Full bodied and viscous. Stupidly easy drinking. Finish is earthy, manky, herbal with hints of pine and candy. Impressive and adult. Sweet but not too much, bitter but not too much. Really good.
