[On tap at a restaurant in Wellington, NZ.] A hazy amber pour with a soapy looking white head; citrusy aroma; orangey taste with a harsh bitterness, seemingly artificial. Drinkable but unexciting.

[33cl bottle encountered on my NZ holiday.] A straw coloured pour with lasting white head; lemony aroma; sharp lemony taste with a syrupy citrus bitterness; and a bitter aftertaste of artificial sweeteners. Quite unpleasant.
