Commercial Description:
Bluebottle Beer is made for seafood. A seductive blend of lifted aromatics, bitterness and a citrus sting to enhance the flavours of the sea. The perfect complement to a seafood dining occasion, in fact the perfect complement to any occasion. Australia's premier food and brewing experts have made sure of it.

Brewed by Australian Independent Brewers for Fusion Brewing (http://www.fusionbrewing.com.au/).

Bottle (330ml). Poured golden with a small, rocky, white head which was average lasting. Aroma was of sweet grainy malts with honey, cooked butter (mild) and a hint of citrus. Flavor was a very light grassy hop bitterness with sweet grainy malts, a hint of citrus, honey and a clean finish. Light bodied with lively carbonation, a dry mouthfeel, watery texture and an ok finish. I admit this was much better than I expected, not an offensive beer just lacks a bit of flavor.

Promises a lot but delivers little. Pours with a small head that diminishes quickly. Light on the pallate and light on flavour.Citrus notes and aroma.

Don’t know about this being a perfect match for seafood. As a beer though, it is quite average. Aroma is a kind of skunky aroma with some sweet honey. Flavour is quite thin and slightly corn syrupy sweet that transitions to some slight citrus and slightly cardboard bitter finish.

330ml bottle. Bright golden body, small white foam. Sharp citrus hops straight up on the nose, some grainy malt in the background. Body is a bit on the watery side, dry texture, sharp carbonation. Grainy malt body, only the slightest hint of the aforementioned citrus hops from the aroma. Finishes a bit skunky, mildly bitter. Disappointing, I was expecting the "young Hunter semillion" of beers, but they’d probably have to double the hop additions for that!

Pale yellow colour with large white head. Thin watery body but short hop flavour. The joys of contract brewing, you get what you pay for :)
