Can. Muddy dull tan. Medium head. Bright nose, full of papaya, bitter orange, lychee, grapefruit...nice. Bitter, just a touch yeasty, pithy grapefruit rind. I would say not quite as bright on the palate as the nose. There isn’t really that killer malt character to build on. Good muddy IPA.

355mL can, pours an opaque filthy murky orange with a small white head. Aroma is very dank and fruity, with lots of dank piney hops and heaps of tropical fruits. Flavour follows accordingly, with truckloads of tropical fruits, dank piney hops, and just enough malt to back. Almost no hoppy astringency, but tons of dank piney flavour. Tropical fruity finish. This continues the awesome legacy of Machine Ales. Excellent.

Murky blond color. Wonderful fruity aroma, lean body, smooth, sweet orange, mango, other tropical fruits.

Filthy yellow color. Crisp malt base, the mouthfeel is not too dirty, and the hops are resiny and citrusy as they were months ago. Delicious.

One of the most ugly cans around; also, we know about Superflux, but the can doesn’t give any info about country, client brewery or websites. The bottom of the can says "28-11-2016 RIP MACHINE"

But as I almost shotgun the can, I just wish I had more of this heavenly juicy and pungent hop soup.

Murky blond color. The aroma is fruity and explosive, tropical fruits, a touch of zesty citrus, and a hint of earthy/musky hops. Nice crackery malts, very delicate, the mild residual sweetness is perfect, everything plays positively for the hop explosion, which is very juicy, loaded with citrusy and piney resins, not even too bitter. It may be my impression but is sense some of those oats in the final, hence lightly dirty.
Ugly but tasty; wonderful.

Densely sedimented with a thick, bubbly head. Expressive hop aroma, mostly orange and grapefruit. On the palate, a mix of yeastiness and bitterness, creamy body and grapefruity hop. Soft finish. The yeast gets in the way of the hops a bit, but the mouthfeel is pretty cool.

Hazy, tan. Thick head. Has a mellow fruity hop nose. Moderate bitterness, actually quite a bit cookie dough malt sweetness, along with tree fruit hops.

I can’t get over the murky look and chalky feeling in the final, but it’s a damn good hop juice.

Murky blond color with compact head. Fucken hell the aroma! Perfect tropical with a bit of dank. Crisp malts, resiny, piney, citrusy, pungent, juicy, minty. A bit too yeasty.
I need to come back for a couple of glasses…
Again, I’d like a cleaner beer, for the eye and the flavor, but as is it’s already excellent.

On tap at Callister, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is quite dank, with loads of piney hops and some resins. Flavour is filled with truckloads of piney hops, moderate dankness, some hop resin oils, and almost no malt backing. Very low residual astringency and just enough sweetness, likely from the hops. Excellent.

On tap at Callister. Pours a cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma and taste bring tons of tropical fruits and piney hops, some sweetness and skunky notes. Piney and tropical bitterness and sweetness aftertaste. Very nice.
