On tap at Illawarra, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out bready malt upfront, with a touch of hop resins. Flavour is balanced well, with bready malt and a little piney and resinous hops. Dry and quite flavourful for the style. Well-hopped. Nicely made.

On tap at Illawarra, pours a reddish dark brown with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out toasted malt upfront. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted malt, light fruitiness and a little cocoa. Smooth and easy drinking. Very good.

On tap at Illawarra, pours a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Nose is more like a hef, with banana and clove. Flavour is dry and wheaty, with coriander, a little banana, and wheat. Dry and decently balanced. Meh.

On tap at Illawarra, pours a clear yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt and some weird boiled vegetables. Flavour is cleaner, with toasted malt, bready notes and a gentle hopping. Dry and clean. Decent.

On tap at Illawarra, pours a hazy pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings floral hops, a little pine and biscuity malt. Flavour is quite clean, with floral and piney hops, along with a crisp biscuity malt backing. Quite clean and refreshing. Well-made if a bit tame.

@Dove & Olive. Darker amber with a light haziness. Clovey, nutmeggy aroma. Light malts have a vague caramel accent. Balanced, albeit pretty straightforward and not picking up much actual pumpkin character...maybe it’s rumpkin I’m tasting.

On tap at brewery. Very little nose, maybe tiny floral hops. Amazing looking beer, opaque but caramel coloured! Hmm.....tastes like a mild watery IPA. Abrupt finish. Sessionable but a bit bland.

On tap at brewery. Spicy hop nose, a bit umami. Very little carbonation. Light body, medium hop finish. Pretty standard pale ale, their Apocalypso is the same price so drink that instead.

On tap at brewery. Great hoppy aroma, stone fruit, tangerine. Minimal carbonation, small lasting head. Ohhhh, its bitter! And it’s creamy. Finish is lingering grapefruit. This is a good beer. Of course, looking at the pacific ocean on a gorgeous late summer Sunday helps!
