Draught at Platform Bar, Brisbane. Pours hazy amber with a creamy beige head. Big hoppy aroma...caramel, tropical fruits, lychee and piney hops. The flavour is caramel and tropical fruit. Medium bodied. Hop resins on the palate and the bitterness follows through to the finish and lingers. A real nice beer from these guys.

On tap at the Taphouse, Sydney. Big on all fronts. Huge hop aroma, flavour and bitterness. Resinous mouthfeel with lots of caramel malt. Shame it didn’t last long. Hope they do it again.

On tap at the Belverdere. Poured a hazy amber with a medium dense head. A big hoppy beer with a decent malty body to support the NZ hops. As Bluevegie said a resinous mouthfeel, sweetish malt with a lingering bitter finish. A hopheads beer, Good.

Tried on tap at the Taphouse St Kilda. Lovely golden amber colour, good lacing and decent lasting head. Hops do dominate the aroma and taste, aggressive but not over the top, nelson sauvin I think, resiny then caramel notes supporting. Enjoyable.
