Can. Pale orange with a white head. Lightly grainy aroma with vague citrus. But rather flabby tasting with wet cereal followed by a little citrus and low bitterness. Lots of ambitious lagers being brewed in Australia these days, but this isn't one of them.

12 oz can from the minibar in Four Seasons Hotel Sydney room! Nose is caramelly, with a grassy hop note. Clear yellow with a medium white head. Flavor is grainy cereal with a decent amount of bitterness and a tingle on my tongue.

10/10/2022. Can from Beer Cartel. Pours almost clear pale yellow gold with a small frothy white head. Aroma of citrus, light grapefruit, some tropical fruits, grassy edge. Moderate sweetness and bitterness, quite nicely balanced. Light bodied and watery. Fairly fizzy. Perfectly acceptable NA beer.

Can. Canned in January and just spotted at First Choice Liquor. Perhaps there's a story there. Very hazy orange with a cm of white head. Restrained pineapple aroma with some melon, kumquat, crackers. More assertive taste with a fair bit of fruit and a slightly harsh finish. Perhaps started a little cold.

(Can) Pours black with big, loose, short lived, tan head. Little aroma, most vegetable notes and a hint of chocolate. Medium body, smooth, good fine carbonation. The taste starts rather ordinary with a restrained dark roast grain and some vegetable notes but then a nice dark chocolate flavour starts to build and is followed by some well balanced chili heat, just enough to be interesting. Hints of cinnamon. Enjoyable.

Can, 13C . Black with a large tan head that fades pretty fast. 3+ Aroma is heavy on good chocolate with nuts behind and roast supporting. The taste is perhaps less exotic than flagged but the chocolate is really nice and (the key for me) the whole thing is not that sweet. Feel that it may have lactose in it but can't taste it. A little hint of under-ripe berries? Enough bitterness at the end. Tastefully done and very nice.

Can. Pretty much opaque orange with a loose inch of white head that fades to a cm. Aroma of pineapple, oranges, chewed crackers. Light bodied. Fruity with load of hop burn. A high score given it's unpleasant to drink, but it does smell quite nice.

From a 375ml can on 1/12/2020. Pours a fairly clear golden with a small head. The nose features a little citrus with some light coffee. The coffee is more pronounced in the flavour, adding a bit to some sweet malt and citrus and tropical fruit notes. Lightish bodied with average carbonation. A pretty solid little beer.
