Cask handpull at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Deep chestnut colour with ruby hints and a lasting thick beige head. Malty aroma, choccy again, maybe a bit more of a twang then the ESB, but still lacks depth and any hop bite. Good malts but just a bit nothingy in mouth. Slight tang on finish.

Cask handpull at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Crystal clear pale chestnut colour with lasting beige head. Lovely malt on this, some hop/yeast. Choccy, bit creamy in mouth, lacks deep malts in mouth, more creamy toffee choc. Finish lacks much hop.

On tap at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Cloudy lemon gold colour with lasting white head. Bubblegummy lemon aroma. Lovely in mouth. Creamy wheat, lemon and bubblegum. Finish is slightly tart, great refreshing lemony Hefe. Great and rather delicate, rather than huge wheat.

Cask handpull at Spinnaker’s, Victoria. Gold colour, lasting beige head. Biscuity yeasty aroma. Quite light in body, reminds me of Caledonian Deuchars IPA. Its got subtle citrus hop. Really easy drinking session bitter. Lovely creaminess, slight earthiness.

Bottle. Cascade and chinook hop nose. Hazy amber, creamy head. Light body. Aromatic and dry hops hop balanced very nicely against a fruity chewy body.

Cloudy pinkish-brown. Cinnamon, sugar and alcohol aroma. Hmmmm...cherry pie concentrated, but it clashes with the spicy, alcoholic tripel that lies underneath. It just ends up being too sweet, since the Fog Fighter is quite sweet to begin with, and the alcohol is never something I welcome in a fruit beer. They also have a cranberry version, which I missed, and that sounds like a better combo on paper.

Reddish amber ale with a thick collapsing off white head. Strong caramel and brown suga in aroma, light hops, and butterscotch. In mouth, a sweet malt with strong nuttyness, a bit sour, medium bodied, but overall pretty nice. June 17, 2006.
