473ml can. Hazy, dark yellow-ish to orange, bright golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity, slightly tropical fruity and minimally piney, hoppy aroma, oaty and minimally wheaty malty background, notes of orange and lemon, mango and mandarine, a touch of blueberry and pineapple. Taste is bitter, slightly piney and slightly fruity hoppy, rather mineral, oaty malty basis without residual sweetness, diluted hints of lemon and orange; watery, oaty, bitter, mineral, almost a bit chalky finish.
Slightly creamy, watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, foamy, prickly carbonation.
Nice nose, but quite watery and relatively flavourless concerning taste, the light body can't capture the fruity hop flavours - OK.

Can: Poured a deep copper color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with some retention and some lacing. Aroma of deep caramelized malt notes with some grainy notes with some boozy bourbon notes. Taste is a somewhat unbalanced mix of caramelized malt notes with some residual sugar notes, some grainy notes and boozy bourbon notes. Body is too thin for style with good carbonation. Lacking some body and balance.

Bottle: Poured an orangey color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of calvados barrel notes with some sweet malty notes and light pear notes. Taste is a somewhat unbalanced mix of pear, calvados barrel notes with some sweet malty notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation. Lacking attenuation and balance with too many different flavors going in all directions.

Hazed, golden colour with orangy highlights, a white cap, decent stay and nice foamy lacing clouds. Lemon zest aromas with a touch of orange juice, a touch of pineapple sweetness and hints of oats. The lemon zestiness continues in the taste, adding a little bitterness, and nice dryness in the end. Hints of tropical, citrus fruity juices and oats lingering. Not a bad NEIPA that has juiciness, but a touch more dryness, zesty bitterness.

Medium-hazed, golden-amber colour with orange highlights, a white frothy head, good stay and lots of sticky lacing streaks. Big zesty aromas with oranges, grapefruits with a touch of pineapple and some good grassiness. Some good bitterness in the taste as well, with hoppy-grassy notes, orange-grapefruit zests and a tad witbier in the background. Quite a bitter, hoppy, drying IPA with the Witbier kind of lost - but a nice brew anyways.

Hazy, golden colour with an orange hue, a warm-white head, good stay and thick foamy lacing. Orange juice nose with lemon zest, some tropical fruitiness and a herbal hint. Lots of citrus zestiness in the flavours, with decent juiciness and slow, building dryness. A pretty decent Double NEIPA that has juiciness, but also zesty notes to balanced its dry finish and lingering fruitiness.

Fairly clean, deep amber colour with some golden highlights, a warm, light-beige head, decent stay and some lacing spots. Aromas of darker malts, giving some dark fruit notes, mild molasses, hints of coffee and nuttiness. Some good fruity maltiness in the taste, with roasted barley base, some decent hoppiness and a touch of caramel. A pretty good, easy-drinking Altibier with enough to keep it interesting.

Lightly hazy, bright yellow colour with a frothy white cap, good stay and some foamy lacing patches. Nectarine aromas over the herbal hops and a mild fresh malt base. The taste shows a little more of the grassiness, hoppiness over the light maltiness. Hints of apples and pears in there. A crisp mouthfeel with a touch of dryness in the end. An interesting Lager with a NZ IPA touch to it and lots of fruitiness.
