Bottle from a web shop. Waited about 2 months. White wine nose, wood, tart, bretty teast, some caramel. Hazy orange amber with a medium, airy head. Lots of wine and caramel, slightly funky, rather sweet, grapes, hay. Fun stuff. Fizzy, soft, silky. Interesting and fun.

Hazy orange pour, some white foam. Nose is softly hoppy, fruity and has this mellow NEIPA fe to it, possibly from hops. Taste is decently hoppy, mellow, and medium-high bitterness. Linger dry and herbal, continuing for a while. Decent and I do like it - but it's not really doing too much for me here.

Tap at the Pijiu Bar, Bangkok. Poured a hazy light amber with a thin white head. The aroma is yeast, big dry yuzu fruit. The flavour is light sour with a crisp, light, refreshing, super dry, yeasty, light tart citrus palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Served at 4 degrees which works for this beer.

Bottle, Black with a modest tan head. Aroma is roasty with mocha, dark berries, some soy sauce. 7- Silky, lowish carbonation. Sweet mocha is a little milky, roasted malt is firm, berry note leads into slightly spiced and decisive bitterness. Good.

Bottle, bb 11/19. In a Duvel glass, it's slightly cloudy with an inch of white head. Aroma of some light dough, light herbs, cloves, loads of citrus - some of which is yuzu, can't really tell where it ends. Full bodied with a slightly creamy texture. The yuzu gets buried initially, then creeps up with a slight acid edge. Pale malt is firm and the beer is just short of boozy with alcohol perhaps adding to a drying spicy finish. It's a bit strong golden and a bit like a drier strong citrus-perfumed Wit. And a good beer.

Bottle. At a guess, this came to Australia because they failed to stick the labels on properly. Mid brown with a fine beige head that lasts really well. Spicy lemon fresh aroma is very cleaning product at first but more subtle lemon myrtle or prickly ash after a while. Underneath is a toasty dough. A sip suggests it _is_ prickly ash (numbing included) - I like it but it's too much. But it melds effectively with spicy doughy yeast and some caramel and grilled peach. And after a while I kind of admire that they've gone for it rather than put a hint of spice in there. Alcohol is present but well integrated. Bold, interesting.

Dirty-hazy pour, some white foam on top, looking a bit dirty as well. Nose is nicely hoppy and fruity, peach character definitely there, beautiful fresh hops. Sweetish and juicy. Tastes smooth and silky, good balance between bitterness and hops, neither one is dominating. Goes down just too quickly, very drinkable. Actually liking this one a lot, better than I expected and definitely has that NEIPA character. Good one.
