Bottle, 15C. Copper with a small off-white head that lasts well. Aroma of dried fruit, toffee, spices. Oily to syrupy mouthfeel. No heat from the alcohol, even though this must comfortably be the strongest Australian beer I’ve had. Bittersweet taste with grapes, dried peaches, figs, raisins, toffee, spices. Sweet-seeming flavours, but not that much sweetness - partly it’s the dry finish, partly the creeping bitterness. Was half expecting a hot kitchen sink; not a bit of it.

On tap at Murrays, Manly March 2012. Hazy amber in colour with a slight white head. Massive, tropical fruit and green tea aroma. Flavour had pineapple, grapefruit, a touch of sweetish malt and a prickly dry finish with a hint of pine. The best beer of my recent trip to Australia.
