Can from Caledonian Craft Beer Merchant. Milky pale yellow body with an off-white head. Steady carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of melon, pineapple and straw. Flavour of grapefruit, melon and lime with a crisp, mineral finish. Medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. The Motueka adds a lovely limey crispness. Another cracking beer from State Of Kind.

Can from Caledonian Craft Beer Merchant. Milky golden body with an off-white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of lemongrass, mandarin and melon. Flavour of lemon, orange and green mango. Medium body with a creamy mouthfeel. Light fizz. This is sublime - one of the best IPAs I’ve tasted in a while. Excited to try more from State Of Kind.

Can from the Black Toad. Appearance - a soft pinky-reddy, almost rose water colour. Fluffy pinkish-white head. Nose - blackberry and earth. Light raspberry eventually. Taste - blackberry again, mainly. Funky and sour edge. Palate - light bodied, light fruit tannins and some sour and funk on the finish. Overall - decent.
