Can. Clear gold with a loosish white head that doesn't last that well. Gentle fruity aroma with peach, light bread, some citrus and spices. Just edging up on watery. A little crust on the bread. A little sweet with peach, then spicy and weedy bitterness that's enough to keep you interested. A more than solid drinker.

Can. Just short of clear pale orange with a modest white head. Aroma is a little grainy with some lemon and weeds. Dry with grainy crackers but the malt is sufficiently stingy that the typical weedy Australian lager finish is decisive and refreshing. Beats a Boag's Classic Tube and pretends not to sneer at it.

Can. Pale gold, slightly hazy. An inch or so of white head collapses to be rocky. Tropical aroma of passionfruit, pineapple, some melon, crackers. Leanish but not as austere as their (great) Tassie Pale with fruit giving way to a little pine and grass at the fairly bitter finish. Good, but I wanted the fruit to hang around a bit longer.

Can. Almost clear pale gold with a white head. Aroma of tropical fruit lollies, some citrus. Very sweet and lolly-like with pineapple and mixed citrus. A bit of a sherbet/ spider tang and lusciousness. Bitterness and a touch of resin creep in to control things a bit. Didn't really grab me.

Can. Very dark brown with a cm of light tan head. Aroma of mocha, nectarines, oranges, lychees. Dryish but with restrained richness lurking - mocha but also toasted flavors. Stone, tropical and citrus fruit before a moderate but insistent bitter end. Tasteful but muscular enough. These quarterly releases are going very well for them.

Aaahhh what a lovely Tasmanian beast. Highly recommendable Black as the deepest dungeon and a fine beige head. Ok lacing Fine intensity in the aroma Balanced sweetness and bitterness. Fine duration! Also a fine mellow carbonation level. Very easy to drink Dark malt, roast, chocolate and espresso [Can from a trade with jinroh] Brewery #2267 Australian region #6

Can. Slightly hazy gold with a thick white head. Aroma of herbal lemon, light gooseberry, crackers. Light bodied. Sweetish with rather vague malt but nice fruit before a little resin drifts in before the moderately bitter finish. A nice summery quaffer. Less interesting than the Single Hop/ Tassie Pale.

This one reconfirms that I'm not a fan of single hoppers. Lots of macro-esque grainy malts don't help. Hops are light lemon with a little stonefruit. Perfectly crushable, but not really my deal.

Can. Fairly hazy gold with a white head that fades a bit from an inch, laces well. Aroma of Meyer lemon, kumquats, barely ripe tropical fruit (mango, pineapple), spices. Kveik as well as mostly Australian hops? 8+ A soft, slightly biscuity and gently sweet malt side of things before fruit, resin and spice take over towards a bitter finish where the spicy notes gradually fade to a point. Despite the cloudiness and the softness, it's clean with defined flavours. Very good. [edit] The last third just became a little wearing.
