Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellow gold beer, small pale cream colour head that lasts about 2 seconds. Light smooth pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. The hop trio are well chosen, light key lime goes well with the Nectaron stone fruits and, Bru-1 fills in all the gaps presenting a rich old smorgasbord of hop fruits. Light pine and some hop spice nip on the light finish. Nicely done. Bright and juicy dipa that is very crushable.

Can. Hazy gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. A light and smooth palate, with decent fine minerally carbonation developing on the back end. Soft creamy sweet malts, not oversweet. Nice Strata hops - actual passion fruit, clear if not that loud. Soft pine. A generic hop fruit backdrop. Only a mild skunk before a light finish. Not the punchiest in this series but it does a great job of bringing out the passion fruit character of the hop. Mild hop spice on the smooth finish. Yeah, nice job.

Panda thanks to Wingman. A light haze on this gold beer, short and short lived pale cream colour head. Light palate, a tad thin, decent fine minerally carbonation. Thin pale malts, sweet, a touch of milky sweetness. Soft pine into decent modern Galaxy broad spectrum fruits. Citrus, with touches of stone fruits and mild tropical fruits. Cooling pine overlays all and there is a nip of hop spice on the finish. A pretty decent Galaxy presentation in a fairly thin brew.

Panda thanks to Wingman. A mild haze on this gold beer, small bubbly off white head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts, slightly ripe in their sweetness. Light crisp cooling pine. Bright but slightly watery hop fruits. Citrus and a touch of stone fruits. Light finish. It's alright, found it quite thin and watery overall.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Pretty much a clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin malts, a slightly grainy sweetness. Cooling pine. Ripeish citrus hop fruits, mildly floral. Mild exotic hop fruits on the back end. Airy semi dry finish. Not bad but suffered a bit after the, for me, superior Hop Butcher west coaster that preceded this.

Panda thanks to Wingman. Near clear gold beer, bubbly off white head. Light palate, smooth and mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation coming through on the back end. Slightly thin bodied malts, a modest sweetness, about right for this brew. Good cooling pine, slightly resinous. Bright citrus hop fruits, touch of peel. Mild hop spice on the semi dry finish. Nice clean IPA.

A light haze on this gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, a little dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Very light bodied pale malts, bordering on thin. An adequate sweetness. Mellow cooling pine. Modest but juicy citrus hops, touch of hop spice. Eclipse brings some mildly peachy stone fruits that adds a much needed dimension. Light finish leaves a soft bitter linger. Tidy and drinkable.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small tidy bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, fairly light, good fine carbonation. Soft smooth pale malts, a light creamy sweetness. Peacharine delivering it's now familiar floral and slightly candyish peach, a deeper riper peach ensues. Very mild and soft skunk on the back end. Soft pine throughout. Peacharine is a hop that does what it says on the tin and, this is a nice and very quaffable example.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this yellow gold beer, small but tidy pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, a little soft, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft pale malts, an airy creamy sweetness. Soft cooling pine hops. Soft but unmissable skunk. Rounded but mildly bright citrus and slightly lesser stone fruits. Airy semi dry finish finds the carbonation enlivening a bit. Nice tasting IPA from Azvex albeit a tad soft edged.

Can. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, a mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a light creamy sweetness. Soft pine into fairly juicy tropical fruits, melon, a little mango, trace of sweet pineapple and even a touch of Sabro like coconut. The old warhorse Citra brings, well duh, some citrus on the back end. Soft pine throughout and a little hop spice on the back end. Nice brew, clean and quaffable as always with Azvex and, a more Elani forward brew than I can recall. Nice job.
