Aroma of malts, fruits, light caramel, floral hops. Flavour is fruity and hoppy, with a moderately biter finish. Not that intensely hopped, but very smooth and quaffable.

Aroma of grapefruit, citrus, floral notes, some yeast, pine, perfumed notes, hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a bitter finish. Bit sweetish and yeasty IPA, forestry aroma. I’m betting it’s the Waimea?

Bottle at home. Aroma of toasted malt, some caramel, some sugar, pine resin, fruity hops. Flavour is moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. Body is light to medium. Decent beer, but I was not very impressed. Could use more body and less sugary malt.

Bottle at home. Aroma is heavily roasted malt, liquorice, spicy ginger, herbal, dark chocolate, hops. Flavour is about medium sweet with a medium roasty and hoppy bitter finish. Body is medium to full. Nice, spicy ginger roasty chocolate Stout. Now I tend to dislike ginger in beer, but I can handle this one.
