3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 bluevegie (2933) - Perth, - APR 2, 2006
Decent A.P.A, best of the lot sampled in terms of presentation in the glass - better head retention and lacing. Grapefruit and hop oil, nice bitterness in the taste. Good for a session beer usually the grapefruit would stop me after a couple but I reckon I may stop after an even half dozen or so.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Maris (546) - Canberra, AUSTRALIA - MAY 26, 2012
From a 330ml bottle on 27/5/2012. Pours a clear golden with a small head. Has a pleasant sweet, slightly floral aroma of fairy floss and passionfruit. The flavour has lots of sweet stone and citrus fruit (apricot, peach and lemon) up front with a medium balancing bitterness. An enjoyable, very solid APA. Could use a few more hops but a good beer none the less.

330ml bottle. Dark amber colour with a dirty white cap of foam that laces the glass. Lots of passionfruit in the aroma which is very sweet and inviting. The flavour is also pa led full of passionfruit and is quite lively in the mouth. This is a good beer.

Part of the sampler tray at the brewery. This and the Honey Pilsner look almost identical-- slightly darker gold than the Mex. Mild but nice aromatic citrus peel aroma. Clean biscuity malts and fruity aromatic hops with a nice bitter finish. This and the Schwarz were the best of the lot IMO.
