Draught at Hotel Sweeney's, Sydney. Sparkling, golden colour, white foam head and aroma of grain, citric, grass. Taste is malt, grain, citrusy, hay, with some papery grassy bitterness. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, drying citric grassy bitter finish. Quite drinkable.

Can, their Advent box. Cloudy yellowish orange with an inch of white head that never quite disappears. Herbal lemon and cracker aroma with passionfruit, mandarin, some pineapple and pine. Vague crackery malt, not much sweetness. A bit resinous towards the moderately bitter end that declines to come to a defined point. I'm puzzled by the West Coast Pils thing - why bother to make a lager with lots of fruity hops? Tasty enough though.

Can, their Advent box. Very pale gold with a white head. Gentle lemony cracker aroma. Austere with little to the taste (hints of crackers) until a modest but rather nice peppery bitter kick at the end. I'm sure this is difficult to make and I kind of appreciate it.

Can, their Ardent box. Pinkish amber with a dense white head. Aroma mostly of raspberries. Then the taste is ice cream without much richness. Slightly sour at the end. Not for me.

355ml can. Pours a cloudy orange yellow with a small, foamy, short lived, white head that leaves spotty lacing. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, guava, passionfruit and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, guava, passionfruit, lemon, salt and floral hops in a dry, tart, slightly acidic finish. Light to medium body with a slightly creamy, oily texture and average carbonation. Juicy and refreshing.

Can, their Advent box. Clear amber, an inch of white head. More viognier than pinot gris aroma - white grapes, stone & tropical fruit, some citrus, some grass. A bit of stickiness to the breadcrust complements the fruit nicely and the grass creeps up towards the fairly bitter finish. Sophisticated.

Can. Misted pale amber, a cm of white head. The promised peach and pineapple aroma. A little bread, plenty of fruit before a slightly woody bitterness than helps keep it the right side of fruit juice. Refreshing.

Can, their Advent box. Misted pale gold, white head lasts OK. Gentle orange and pineapple aroma with crackers and some pepper. So it tastes. Snappy enough at the end. Good dustcutter.

Can. Almost opaque orange, white head. Big but unfocussed grassy, orange and peach aroma with some white grape. Then in the taste there's the promised gooseberry to give a little bit of edge to things. A bit more orange too. And they overcome the hazy tendency towards vagueness but keep it soft enough. Only a little bitter. Nice. As usual you can discern the thinking behind the way they've made this.
