(Can) Pours very dark brown with big mid brown head - great looking beer. Nice aroma too. Starts off piney, and then chocolate notes appear. Medium bodied, smoothly with great carbonation - monthly and soft. Excellent taste. Starts with dark fruits and quickly develops both chocolate and pine flavours, gradually developing into a solid bitter finish with both hop and black coffee / bitter chocolate bitterness. There’s some woody resin notes too. Excellent beer. Pretty intense, but keeps you coming back for another taste.

From a 375ml can on 8/3/2025. Pours a fairly clear mediuym golden with a medium, bright white head. Those nose feature some sharp citrus and grass, with some caramel notes. Tastes of orange, lemon and lime with a nice caramel and biscuit malt backbone. Very bitter at the back with heaps of grapefruit and pine. Fullish bodied with moderate carbonation. Nice to see some maltiness in an Oz brewed big WC. Really nice stuff.

Can. Clear gold with an inch of white head that fades slowly. Aroma of peach and kumquat, crusty bread with an odd but pleasant old lime earthiness. Leaner than expected with high carbonation that accentuates the moderate bitterness. Pretty good, some intrigue.

From a 375ml can on 21/2/2024. Pours a hazy medium golden with not much in the way of head. Has a zestry citrus aroma. It all carries through to the taste which is all blood orange. Finishes with a firm, grapefruit bitterness. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Very nicely balanced, really good.

Aromas of coconut, mango, grapefruit and biscuit. Effortlessly hides its alcohol and has a nice tangy hop bitterness. The only criticism is that it's a little sweet.
