Bottle. Amber with a large white head. 3+ Aroma of oranges, grapefruit, herbs, lesser tropical fruit notes. Some bread crust sweetness and more body than expected for 5.8%. Maybe some light stone fruit as well as the citrus and tropical fruit. Firm to strong bitterness. Certainly drinks like a (somewhat old fashioned) IPA - heaps of grunt for its strength.

330ml bottle from Bucket Boys, Marrickville. Pale golden colour, white foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of fleshy apple, citric. Taste is sweet, tangy apple, wood, fruity with some tart citric and white wine notes. Light bodied, medium carbonation, semi-dry citric finish. Quite OK

Can. Murky brownish with a white head that doesn’t last. Tropical fruit cup aroma with pineapple, passionfriut, orange. Lightish bodied. The fruit is ok but is rapidly overtaken by herbal tinged bitterness. Didn’t do much for me.

33cl can from Dan Murphy's, Fairfield, Melbourne. Poured a clear golden colour with a short-lived frothy white head. The aroma is malty, light biscuit, gluey, light woody hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a fresh, crisp, malty light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. I could drink a second can.

330ml bottle - Pours a deep dark amber colour with a good sized foamy beige head that settled. Aroma is caramel malts, tropical fruit and resinous hops. A moderately sweet malty taste, caramel and grapefruit flavours with a citrus resiny hop bitter finish.

Mango, pineapple, passionfruit. It's all there. Nicely balanced, easy drinking NEIPA

375ml can into pint glass. Thanks to Ratebeer and Beer Cartel. Cloudy 'caramel sauce' appearance, foamy white head. Aroma is ripe tropical fruit. Fresh and zingy, clean finish with lingering sharp lemon juice. Very nice but also very much like all the other NEIPA's around at the moment.

Can from #ratebeersupertasters. Hazy gold. Passionfruit and orange nose. Definitely juicy. Slightly herbaceousness rather than overly bitter. On the money but not a blockbuster hit.

From a 375ml can on 3/10/2019. Pours a hazy light golden with a smallish head. The nose is pretty typical for a standard NEIPA - fruit salad with some spice. No real surprises on the sip either, but perhaps a bit more herbal and less sweet than is typical. The bitterness is spicy and just a touch salty. Medium bodied with average carbonation.Okay but just lacks a bit of cohesion and balance.

Bottle. Brown with glints of red. A beige head is soon a coat. Vinous aroma with dough, chocolate, herbs. Medium bodied. Sweet (white) grape pizza, chocolate, some herbs, quite bitter and oaky. The sweetness is a little bland and there's not quite the presence you'd expect for 8.5% but the balance is very nice.
