I mainly like stouts & porters with a simple lager on a warm day. Big chewy hazy IPAs and oddities like milkshake sours also tickle my fancy.

Not bad but raspberry tastes a bit artificial & the style is maybe better suited to a higher ABV version.

440ml can. One of the top 25 beers in NZ in the 2025 NW comp. Pours a thick opaque orange with the "dirt" being vanilla seeds. Aroma is almost all tropical fruit smoothie with a hint of sour beer. Beer is as thick as I've tried, not quite like a fruit smoothie but close. Flavour is amazing assuming you like a tropical smoothie, the beer flavour is well down & it could almost be a smoothie with a shot of rum/vodka. More fruit than I have ever had in a beer. Top example of the style.

One of the Top 25 beers in NZ in 2025 according to the NW competition.

A decent IPA but the coconut is so subtle in my can that I wouldn't be able to pick it. Disappointing.

440ml can. Decent mid strength porter. Good flavour, not too sweet or overly hoppy. Would buy again.
