3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle from Dan Murphy’s. Nice and fruity. Aromas of honey, citrus, and peach. Taste is sweet, with light bitterness, and average length. Palate is velvety, highly carbonated. Orange, with a frothy head.

640mL bottle, Light golden pour with a small head and slight citrus aroma. Slight citrus in the flavour with ok malt backing.

Dry and lean, and of course refreshing as a summer beer, but I think to a fault. Lacks some generosity and there’s a piney note which might point to a mild fault. I’m tipping this sample wasn’t in the best possible nick so will need to try again.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours amber with a large white head.
Nose shows a massive lilli-pilli (ha, as if anyone knows what lilli pilli is like) hop note, along with citrus (mainly grapefruit) and a little pine.
Similar flavours, more lilli pilli and woody notes, with some faint biscuity and grainy malt also present.
Could use a little less carbonation, I guess...
Pretty decent attempt, somewhat different from most.
