3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On guest tap at The Local Taphouse, Melbourne. Pours an orange colour with a beige head. Aroma is malt, caramel, fruit and hops. Taste is light sweet of fruit and caramel leading to a hoppy finish. Good stuff.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Six-pack of 12-oz. bottles from local grocery store. Cloudy golden pour with distinct floral notes on the nose. Medium bitterness with a bit of sweetness. Nice body with some carbonation and a quick finish. Not particularly "hops forward" compared to other IPAs but I enjoyed it.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a cloudy golden with mininmal lacing head. Aroma is strong with citrus particulary grapefruit and a bit of tangerine. Bitter taste is complimented with tangerine sweet. Finishes dry and overall a great IPA
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Deep golden color. Sharp bitter finish. It's definitely not my favorite IPA.

Light copper pour. Light to medium white head with good lacing. Floral and citrus hop aroma with no malt aroma. Light body and floral hops still dominate flavor. Lingering bitterness with a hint of sweetness from the base malt.

4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
A finger and half of foamy head on a hazy, medium straw colored body.
The aroma is lemon, pine and a little peppercorn.
The taste is moderately bitter with a nice malt sweetness to round it out well. Great balance with no edges.
The texture is smooth with moderate carbonation.
A great IPA, nice hop profile with the perfect balance to make it a drinker.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottl from Plonk. Aroma spoilt by dusty/musty character, ok flavours, but again tasted a bit dusty, bitterness a bit harsh. Not a great IPA by any reckoning.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
355ml bottle from Warners at the Bay Bottle Shop. Big head of foam consisting of a lot of small bubbles. The head quickly settles and reveals a golden orange beer that looks pretty solid. The aroma is reasonably moderate but the flavour more than makes up for it. Hoppy without being over the top.
2.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Not at all like the ipa’s I’m used to. No awesome aroma of hops. Very tangy and bitter which I am enjoying but seems to be missing that little extra. Sounding like a snob, it is nice, bitter and a different ipa from what I’m used to. Very drinkable. Tangy bitterness dominate this beer for me.
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle - medium cloudy yellow with lacing. Had a skunk aroma like a lot of the Mexican lagers. Did I get a stale IPA?
