2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Excellent amber with a rocky white head that sat nicely on top of the beer. Aromas tend toward the malt spectrum. Biscuity, coconut rough? Good carbonation, flavours of orange lobes and Anzac biscuits (per the aromas). Not an inordinate amount of hop aroma or bitterness, but a perfectly pleasant pint.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bright copper - looks great. Earthy-fruity nose with a light toast character. Earthy-metallic taste with some woody hops emerging towards the finish. Mostly, I’m not a fan of the overall toastiness of this one.
