(Can) Pours clear amber with thin short-lived white head. Lovely aroma - pine, and fruit - peaches, passion fruit. Medium body with full fine carbonation. Nice tasting beer. Hoppy bitterness is at the front from start to finish. This is balanced with some nice caramel malt. Very drinkable.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy golden with good but short lived white head. Pleasant aroma of lemon with pepper notes. Medium body with good full smooth carbonation. Nice thirst quenching start with lemon notes. Peppery spice develops and then some pleasant bitterness. Very nice drop.

From a 375ml can on 29/6/2019 (described on the can as a New England IPA). Pours (somewhat curiously) a clear light golden with a big foamy head. Has a light fruity, slightly grassy aroma. Has a little bit of bready malt, and a dash of citrus fruit sweetness, with a mild, somewhat lemony bitterness. Lightish body with average carbonation. Not very NEIPA like in character, but moderately pleasant and easy enough to down.

Super hazy golden blonde coloured body with a deep, two to three centimetre tall pure white and relatively soapy head that stays afloat for a while. Aroma of grass, cleanser, hay, flowers, lemons, light tropical fruits and a touch of resin and bitter hops towards the end. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy and very herbal flavours at first give way to a big fruitiness towards the end and a solid malt backbone that has a lot of bitterness, yet is still easy to drink and enjoyable with a fruity, hoppy bite at the end. Aftertaste shows the grass and hay-like flavours stronger than anything else with a deep bitterness from all the hops, but also a dry and floral bite with some of the tropical fruits and sweetness on the very tail end. Overall, very easy-drinking and a full-flavoured beer with a nice complexity that hits the right notes throughout. I sampled this 375 mL can purchased from BWS in Kirribilli, Sydney, NSW, Australia on 14-August-2019 for AU$7,00 sampled in my hotel room here in Sydney, a day later on 15-August-2019. B

Pint on tap at Club Rivers, Riverwood. Pale hazy yellow beer with a thin white head. Nose is nuts! Yeah, you heard.... Nuts! Good lacing, sweet nutty taste. Finish is more nuts. If you don't like peanuts or macadamias, you will hate this beer. But I could live on this, crunchy peanut paste, and satay beef. Bring it on!

At Sydney beer festival. Black beer, tan head. Chocolate malt, cocoa nose. Medium body. Slight zing, easy drinking. Clean finish with a little bitterness. Probably needs to warm up a little to bring out more flavour but perfectly drinkable.
