On tap at Vultures Lane. Pours red brown. Caramel, orange, sweet real cherry flavour, bit of biscuit, slightly bitter finish, not too much residual sweetness. Medium body, perhaps a touch over carbonated. Fine.

Tap at My Bar. Hazy darker golden with fluffy lasting off white head. Lots of apricot juice, light citrus, dry malts, soft weedy hops, creamy peach. Medium sweet, bitter and bodied. Nice creamy and fruity IPA.

Tap at My Bar. Clear darker golden with off white head. Grapefruit, light grassy, dank hops, clean malts with soft cara and pils notes. Almost medium sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with clean crisp and oily feel. Quite clean and fresh with some balance between the malts and hops instead of the usual NZ dankness onslaught.

Tap at Eureka Dunedin. Hazy amber with off white head. Thick tropical fruits, loads of pine cone, caramel, sweet resin, thick grassy, grapefruit. Massive hops here. Over medium sweet and quite bitter. Over medium bodied with light astringent hop finish. Slightly too much, maybe.
