(Can) Pours clear pale yellow with greenish hue and tiny white head. Pleasant aroma of pineapple and coconut with some subtle funky hints. Light body with plenty of bright carbonation. Taste is tart and pineapple. There’s notes of coconut too. It’s refreshing and certainly easy to drink, but a bit out there for a beer.

(Can) Pours black with a tiny tan head. Aroma of dark roast grains with notes of nuts and hints of berries. Medium bodied, smooth with low carbonation. Great taste with a lot going on. There’s the dark roast grains of stout combined with sweetness and some tangy berry jam notes. There’s some creamy notes too. All works together very nicely. Very enjoyable.

On tap at Welder's Dog, Armidale. Black beer with a solid coffee coloured head. Laces well. Nose is dark chocolate and cocoa. Cherry in the flavour and finish. Excellent interpretation of a 'Cherry Ripe'. Yum, yum.

(Can) Pours cloudy amber with tiny white head. Aroma of pine and citrus. Light bodied and fizzy. Grapefruit tartness throughout palate. A little bitterness in the finish. Refreshing but a bit one dimensional.

The label says Lean and dry, with potent bitterness and a delicious herbal dimension to its hop character and say that's pretty much it. I'd just take out the words potent and delicious and mention that the palate's a little thin. Very uninspiring this one.

A pleasant aroma of mango, pineapple, honey and grapefruit. It's got a nice balance between tropical and citrus flavours in the mouth, but it's let down by some astringency which leaves a puckering aftertaste on the tongue.

A solid enough IPA. Aromas of grass, pine needles and lemongrass. A pleasant bitterness and a dry finish, as advertised.

This one's flat despite being package in June, so I figure I've just got a bad one? Aromas of grapefruit, pine and biscotti, which becomes caramel in the mouth. Not a bad drop, but I can't get past that lack of carbonation. May or may not try to re rate this one.
