2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Sweet malt hop aroma. Murky amber colour with thick foamy head and great lacing. Hoppy malt fruit aroma. Fizzy palate.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very strange I do remember. Tasted way back in 2008, and rated from notes alone.
Produced an opaque, muddy gold. Very fine carbonation raises up a lasting, creamy white head. Good lace. Nose is thick, doughy with distinct cantaloupe and pear notes, mild spice tickle. Taste, just like the nose, is full of gammy fruit like cantaloupe, mango and pears with a zingy sweetness on the tip like candy sugar. A hint of lavender trails off into the swallow. Light bodied but shows good mouthfeel. All yeast and esters this one. Comes away quite refreshing all in all. (On draught at the brewery, Pemberton, W.A.)
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
A distinct and healthy beer brewed from the rain fed Pemberton water trails. Jarrah offers an oppurtunity for ale drinkers to experience a smokey timber infused palate that washes over the taste buds very favourably. The small bottle size to price is in my opinion a little over done, however classy beers and classy beer drinkers are worth that little bit extra.

Great belgium beer. Has orange and fruity characters. Has high alcohol. Something different worth a taste.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: APR 21, 2006 Good size white head on top of a murky orangey amber body. Head retention is very good. Aroma is of spice and alcohol. Taste is smooth and fruity, pineapple, yeast, good alcohol, a hint of caramel and sugar with a medium body. More of a belgian ale than a golden ale but full marks to this WA micro-brewer for being a little bit different. Re-rate 21April 06 Body is a tad thinner than I remember but otherwise everything was just fine.
