Tap at Eureka Dunedin. Hazy yellow golden with white head. Sour mango, orange, light citrus, herbs and flowers. Nice aromatic mix of light funk, fruit and flowers. Light dry grins with some bitter cornflakes in the finish at first but it gets a lot better. Medium sour, under medium sweet and light bitter. Medium bodied.

Tap at Brothers Beer. Clear light golden with small white head. Strong dank hops, light sweat, onion, quite spicy herbal notes. Like a weird version of Sorachi Ace but better? Gooseberries, basil. Light dry malts. Just medium sweet and medium bitter. Medium bodied with slight dry feel. Interesting and quite good.

GABS Auckland 2018. Pours gold. Soap, kiwifruit, pear, lots of feijoa, just a bit of that sweaty bread finish that ruins so many kettle sours for me. Medium body. Fine.
