Can. Gold with a white head that doesn’t lat too well. Aroma of grainy bread, floral and spicy hops. Decent body - maybe a bit slick. Carbonation on the low side of medium. Sweet grain bread, some butter (if PU can, why not?), a little bit of cardboard. Firm bitterness with a peppery bite. Not bad at all and I’d guess some of its "flaws" are brewer’s choices about character.

Taster at Australian Beer Festival. 1000th rating! The guys took my photo (not for the rating) because I looked like their mate!?! Hazy golden beer with thin white head. Sharp fruity taste with short finish. Nice hops but a bit pedestrian.

Can (which does indeed misspell palate). Slightly hazy pale orange with a white head that fades fairly quickly but never quite disappears. Aroma has lots of tropical fruit tempered with a bit of grapefruit and pine. Rather plain hayish malt just gets out of the way of the hops really. Dries out a bit and bitterness is moderate. Sound but generic.

375 can into schooner glass. Very slight cocoa notes on the nose, ruby red beer with foamy white head which disappears to nothing. Lightly carbonated. Flat mouthfeel, full-bodied. Malty and tangy taste. Finish is sour, tangy, zingy. Unusual take on a brown ale. Super easy drinking though (it’s gone).
