Hazy and pale, but just a thin head. There's some piney hop notes on the aroma. The flavour has more of those, some light orange, and a bit of sweetness. The motueka, I feel, makes the hop blend pop here. The fermentation is interesting - it has that light fruitiness even from a lager yeast.

On tap at Main Street, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has plenty of waffle character, gentle chocolate, and sugars. Flavour is extremely sweet, with plenty of chocolate-dipped waffles—as advertised. There’s not much malt backbone, and this is still much too sweet. Gimmicky nonsense, but not terrible—marginally better than the non-chocolate version.

On tap at Main Street, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma has some citrusy hops, powdered citrus fruits, and some perfumey hop oils. Flavour is a little better, with lots of citrus, grapefruity hops, and floral notes. Pretty thin malt base, finishing on citrusy hop oils and citrus fruits. Not bad but the hop expression is a bit clumsy and the citrus powder doesn’t help.

On cask at Main Street, pours a clear amber with a small tan head. Aroma has dry bready malt, not much else. Flavour has a little more hop content, with light bitterness, dry bready malt, and a touch of dried toffee. Finished lightly bitter. Very easy-drinking and unassuming. Decent.

On tap at Steamworks - Mt Pleasant, pours a cloudy pinkish amber orange with a small white head. Aroma has some rotting tropical stone fruit, a touch of lactose, and light lacto. Flavour is milky above anything, with plenty of lactose, yogurty lacto, and fruity guava. A bit too sweet and a bit too milky. Not good.

Taster pour from Armin. Poured from the tap @ Notorious Fox. Clear blonde gold with minimal white head. Basic, corn malt, uninteresting lager. Probably made for the locals.

Amber, bright. Cask head. Toasty, caramelly, moderate bitterness, more on the crystal malt than the Good Best, though they do have similar character.
