375ml can from a Mosman liquor store. Poured a slightly unclear golden colour with a thin white head. The aroma is grainy, bready, biscuit malt. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a somewhat light, crisp, light tropical citrus, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation.

375ml can from a liquor store at Circulat Quay, Sydney. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is malt, light herbal. The flavour is light bitter, with a smooth, herbal, juicy watermelon, light hop bitter palate. Medium bushed with average carbonation. It’s rather like watermelon juice, but it works and it’s not unpleasant.

Nice light gold with just tiny wisps of foam and a stone fruit and citrusy pine aroma. Light bodied and quite dry with prickly carbonation.
Pretty middle of the road but ok.

(Can) Pours hazy amber red with no head. Aroma of raspberry jam and lemon. Light body with plenty of lovely bright carbonation. Nicely sour with a citrus and yoghurt sourness. There’s raspberries. No bitterness and no sweetness. Very nice, very refreshing.
