Can. Clear amber with a huge off white head. Aroma of strong bread, oranges, grapefruit, flowers, spices. Maybe some peach - lots going on. Enough crusty bread to support but fairly dry. Spicy with some citrus and highish bitterness (although I wouldn't have guessed 100 IBU). Good stuff.

Can. Hazy orange with a 2cm white head. Aroma of citrus peel and blossoms, spiced dough. Slightly funky. Light bodied, spritzy. Dryish with punchy fruit (though the additions are restrained), light dough, cloves, white pepper. Dry at the end so bitterness is quite pronounced. Quenching. Good.

Bottle. Purs deep amber with considerable carbonation. It's all about the peat here. Big smokey bacon nose. Big dirty bacon mouthfulls. This beer should just change it's name to Peat. And I love it.

Tap at the Ballarat Beer Festival 2018. Poured a murky medium brown with a big frothy light tan head. The aroma is caramel malt, toffee, nuts, liqouirce woody hop. The flavour is moderate dry liquorice bitter light sweet with a dry roasty, light floral hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

330 ml bottle into schooner glass. Smoky BBQ sauce nose. Has the appearance of caramel sauce with a sudsy cream coloured head. Zingy and quite sweet to taste. The finish is a nice drying blend of toffee, smoke and raisins. Really excellent nuanced smoked beer.

A really nice American amber ale. There is a little citrus aroma, but the nose is dominated by a tomato scent which fades into a slight stonefruit aroma. The hops are quite bitter in the mouth and the juniper berries give it a satisfying warmth. The palate is a little thin, but the length is good.

From a 500ml bottle on 28/12./2014. Pours a cloudy amber with a biggish head which disappears quite quickly. Has a very pleasant nose featuring lots of fruity hops. In the mouth, there’s a good dash of caramel malt, some citrus and stone fruit (orange and peach), and a big rye influenced hop bitterness, which has more than a touch of saltiness to it. Has a medium body and is perhaps a touch over carbed. All up, this is a quite solid rye IPA. I’d like a bit more countering sweetness and a touch less carbonation, but these are relatively minor quibbles.
