Pours dark brown with a quickly fading head.Nose shows some chocolatey roasted malt with soft coffee in the background. Faint caramel also present.Very similar flavours with more roasted malt. Finishes weakly, could use some extra crystal or something.Carbonation could be higher, body seems a bit watery.

Bottle, 7C. Label and name presumed to be deadpan Kiwi humour. Pours clear amber with an inch of off-white head. Aroma of oranges, peaches, dough, pasture. Quite sweet with drying spicy bitterness that creeps up a bit too fast and then doesn’t stay around. There’s light caramel as well as fruit in the malt and some cloves and coriander seed as well as herbs and grass in the brief finish. Obviously strong, but the alcohol doesn’t really stick out more than you’d expect. Big doughy yeast present throughout. A little simple, but not crude.

Pours dark copper with a creamy off-white head.Nose shows lovely oak and bourbon notes with great caramel and light roasted malt providing the backbone. Nice chocolate and nutty hints.Pretty similar flavours but quite sweet. When all mixed together (including the not inconsiderable amount of woody bourbon) it becomes a bit too much.Carbonation is a little full on.

Pours amber with a large lasting head.Nose is overwhelmingly herbal at first, coriander or something. Some doughy wheat shows along with soft fruits: orange, peach, somewhat confectionery-like. Pretty weird.More doughy wheat shows as a flavours, also similar fruit and that bold herbal note. Finishes with a somewhat unpleasant boozy finish.Carbonation is pretty high.
