473mL can, completely fucked, poured like a capri sun. Pours murky yellow with a small white head. Tons of elderflower and band-aids on the nose, very gin-like. Flavour has elderflower and a lot of bandaids, some sweetness. Almost no carbonation. Very poor.

473ml can. Pours a clear red brown with a small, creamy, short lived, beige head that laces. Aroma of toasted bready malt, caramel and floral hops. Sweet flavour of roasted bready malt, caramel, raisin, oats and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and soft to almost flat carbonation. Slightly disappointing.

Cloudy beige pour, with a small white head. Aroma is tart and lactic, with a soft guava nose. Light tartness, guava is there but subtle strawberry appears in the finish..

Black pour, with a medium white head. Aroma is softly roasty, hints of coffee and minerals. Silky, soft mouthfeel, with a soft carb. Finish is medium bitter, roasty, with a touch of smoke. An impressive Guinness alternative.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy gold orange with a small, foamy, short lived, white head that laces. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, orange, peach, mango, passionfruit and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, apricot, pineapple, mango, guava, honeydew melon and a hint of coconut in a dry, bitter pine finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Juicy and easy to quaff.

Flight pour at the Oxford St location. Pours black with beige nitro head. Gentle roasted malts on the nose. Flavour has light roasted malts and dark chocolate. Nitro leaving a lingering bitterness that is unpleasant. Not enough depth of flavour or body to be good.

375mL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with small white head. Wild yeast, light citrus, and a sake-esque rice quality on the nose. Flavour has tart and funky wild yeast, some citrus pith, and fermented rice. Solid carbonation. Simple, but nicely done.

As it warms up, there is a very distinct burnt rubber coming through on both the nose and the palate. Completely distracting and overpowering. Poor quality control.
