Poured from the tap. Clear amber gold with small white head. Weird floral, vaguely soapy, citrus hops, feint bandaid notes. Meh.

Poured from the tap to fill the flight. Clear purple red with small pink head. Some lacto, some berry, some creaminess, all very bleh, not going as far as butyric, but not great.

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with small white head. Simple Bready malt, nothing interesting, but completes my quest for the P49 Oktoberfest beers (I think).

Sampled at Hopscotch 2023, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is gentle, with grassy hops and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is clean, with lots of grassy hops, biscuity malt, and a touch of pine. Nicely hopped and decent balance. Pleasant.

Sampled at Hopscotch 2023, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out tangy hops, a little pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour reveals a nice NZ tangy hop character and crisp crackery malt. Nice use of the NZ hops. Good stuff.

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with small white head. Doughy sour malt with melon and mild tropical hops. A bit rough around the edges. Apparently an experimental brew that will be tweaked to become to new release (according to the manager). Has some potential.
