Aromas of peach, honey, bread, marshmallow, lemon, orange peel and marzipan. The marzipan, orange peel and tart citrus dominate in the mouth. I really enjoy this. Full bodied, and quite different.

Aromas of guava, marshmallow, cream and lemon. A nice body typical of an IPL with lots of grapefruit and pine needle hops. A really enjoyable IPL.

Bottle. Black with a dense tan head. Aroma of whisky, sappy maple, mocha. Silky texture with lowish carbonation. The whisky almost outmatches the stout but not quite - there's firm roast and chocolate, then bitterness mingles with the oddly drying aspect of maple to create a nice finish. Deft.

Can. Clear yellowish orange with a white head that fizzes away in a flash. 3- Smells of fresh passionfruit pulp and... nah, that's it. Light bodied getting on for watery. Fizzy. There is a dry crackery beer under the fruit and it has just enough sourness to make it a refreshing combination.

GABS Auckland 2018. Pours murky dark brown with a huge jelly textured head. Earth, soil, toast, bread, hint of apricot. Quite bitty. Something very wrong with the keg. Edit: Went back in the second session to try again. New pour did not have the bittiness that made the first try so unpleasant. Still quite earthy and not well put together but much improved so rating improved too.
