Can. Amber with an off white head. Grapefruit grilled with brown sugar on top aroma with some stewed berries and bread. Light bodied, spritzy. Some dark sugars but not all that much sweetness. Some berries, then a nice zesty punch. Refreshing.

Can. Black, a fat light tan coat fades. Aroma of fairly dark roasted malt, fruity coffee, dark sugars. That;s how it tastes too. Fairly sweet with enough roast and coffee that by the finish the sweetness doesn't linger. Pretty good, nicely balanced.

Can. Clear pale amber with a frothy white head. Aroma of kumquat, breadcrust, flowers, hints of earthy spice. So clean it feels a little insubstantial. Light caramel and lighter bread, citrus and floral notes, medium high bitterness. Good with clear signs they know what they're doing.

From a 375ml can on 24/12/2024. Pours a clearish deep golden with a medium head. The nose features a bit of citrus and some earthy notes. Tastes or orange and bit of tangerine, with some caramel malt in the background. Moderately bitter, featuring a lingering tang. My first beer from these guys. A pretty solid little IPA.

Pint on tap at The Grain Store, Newcastle. Amber/Red beer with a thin film of suds on top. No carbonation. Sweet malt nose, smoky malt taste, smooth texture. Sequential lacing all the way down the glass. Slight bitterness at the end. Typical of the style but a very nice red ale.
