From a 440ml can on 29/7/2026. Pours a slightly opaque reddy amber with a small head. The nose features light fruit, toast and spice. Tastes of orange marmalade, toast, spice and a touch of caramel. Finishes with a moderate to firm bitterness, with some hints of resin and pine. Fullish body with moderate carbonation. Really clean and nicely balanced. They are really nailing these reds as well.

Can. Very dark brown, modest light tan head. Aroma of strong bread, roasted malt, earthy hops, mocha. Perhaps a little liquorice too. Moderately sweet with roast, mocha & hints of singed caramel at first, then almost too much (but not) bitterness roars on through. Good stuff.

From a 440ml can on 19/7/2026. Pours a milky golden with a smallish head. The nose is a powerful combo of stone, tropical and citrus, which follows through on the sip - peach, nectarine, melon, lemon and orange, leading in to a moderate, tangy, lightly spicy, lingering bitterness. Has a pillowy mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Very smashable for the size. A complex and truly lovely fruit bomb.

From a 440ml can on 7/7/2026 (shared with Des for Origin Game 3). Pours a deep brown with virtually no head. Has a big whisky nose with some dark fruits. Tastes quite plummy with some dried fruits, and dark chocolate. Finishes lightly roasty with a hint of sour, and a big dash of whisky. Doesn’t have the body I’d normally expect for something this big. Moderate carbonation. A solid big sipper, but they’ve done much better big dark brews.

From a 440ml can on 7/7/2026. Pours a deep brown with a small head. The nose features light roasty notes with some resin and pine. Tastes of dark chocolate, roasted malt, a bit of licorice, finishing firmly hoppy, with lots of lingering resin and pine. Full bodies with moderate to average carbonation. Pretty solid without being a standout.

From a 440ml can on 13/6/2026. Pours a clear reddy amber with a small head. The nose is both fruity and malty, with lots of citrus and some toast. Tastes of sweet citrus with lots of zesty peel in the mix, peel, along with some toast, caramel and biscuit. Finishes firmly bitter at the back, giving it fabulous balance. Fullish bodied with average carbonation. Bold, assertive and on point. A cracking red.

From a 440ml can on 26/5/2026. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a smallish head. Has lots of freshly squeezed fruit on the nose, with lots of citrus and stone fruit prominent. Taste wise you get lots of nectarine, with some mandarin, peach, mango and lemon finishing with a somewhat green, herbal bitterness with a dash of the promised pine. Full bodied with average carbonation. Very different to the usual cloudy types these guys excel at, but just as impressive.
