A reddish amber wit-styled IPA in can from Lord Nelson. That is unexpected. Pale beige head. Aroma of toast, bread crusts, some dried fruit, orange peel. I might guess wheat but I might guess wheat and rye. Sweet with bread, dried fruit, spices, orange peel. Drying finish has bitterness that’s on the high side of medium and struggles to cut through and bit before leaving some spices. An odd duck. Worth another go.

Australia Day Beer #1. 375ml can into shaker, 4.2%. Named after USA VP Dan Quayle, trivia buffs! Clear amber beer with fluffy white head (which disappears) and several large bubbles. Faint hop nose, maybe some grain. Sparkly mouthfeel leads to some malt & bread with a dry sour note at the finish. Ordinary at best.

Pint on tap at Brewhouse, Bankstown. Slight passionfruit/lemon nose, some malt. Cloudy orange/amber beer with thin white head. Zingy sparkly mouthfeel. Finish is ’Fruit Tingles’ and cleansing hop bitterness. Quality quaffer. Definitely better as it warms.

(Bottle) Pours clear pale coppery brown with almost no head. Subtle mostly pleasant aroma of biscuit, fruit and slight cardboard hint. Light body, with plenty of rather coarse carbonation giving a somewhat fizzy mouthfeel. Nice taste - toffee and tangy bitter orange, with some earthy bitter notes developing in the finish. Very nice, especially for a Golden/Blond.

Bottle. Gold with a white head that’s soon a coat. Aroma of lime, Seville oranges, hay, a touch of biscuit. Sweet with solid pale malt, marmalade like citrus and an earthy/ spicy note that for me is just a little overdone. Firm bitterness. Hearty stuff. And obdurate.

Pint on tap @ pub. Black as night, fruity cocoa nose. Flavour follows nose, finish is dry, zingy, fruity and bitter. A late touch of malt balances it all out. Gets better (and more bitter) as it warms.
