2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 bmeup (470) - Ormeau, - JAN 3, 2013Clear golden and filtered body with aroma of buttery toast, little hop character, very (very) average APA, the blurb is BS......."an absolute pearler"...not!
1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 Stew41 (1572) - Woodend, AUSTRALIA - FEB 25, 2013
Garden variety macro PA here. In fact I would picked this blind as a pale lager which, technically speaking, probably is. Sweet, slightly sticky adjuncts in force. Weak finish with little bitterness. Crap.

Bottle. Just your average pale. touches of citrus and biscuit in the aroma. taste has a mild caramel malt backing to back up the mild citrus flavours. not amazing but a decent pale none the less
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 KeefOz (471) - Tarragindi, AUSTRALIA - DEC 10, 2012
Poured a clear golden amber with a thin white bubble head that diminished quickly and did not lace. Aroma of floral hops. Taste slightly sweet followed by light hops bitterness. Light body. Soft light finish, more like a pilsner.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Brenhophead (382) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - NOV 17, 2012
330mL bottle. Pours clear light golden with a nice zesty floral aroma. The sweet malt complements the citrus/floral flavour well. Not a bad aussie effort.
2.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Oli_Mountain (3) - AUSTRALIA - APR 28, 2012 does not count
330ml stubbie: pours light gold, med carbonation and a sweet nose.
Sessionable beer but seems to have too much of a sweet, almost lager like palate. Definitely doesn’t taste anything like the better aus pale ales out there.

2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 mkel07 (2340) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - MAR 24, 2012
330ml bottle. Clear looking amber colour with a scattering of white foam that vanishes quickly. Some citrus and flowery aromas but nothing that jumped out at me. The flavour is okay but a bit light on. Not much left on the palate. Middle of the road pale ale.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Davros (1481) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - FEB 13, 2012
Pours gold with a small head.
Nose shows grapefruit, passion-fruit and piny hops, along with some spicy notes and faint caramel.
Not as interesting flavours, some faint fruity and floral hops followed by bready malt.
Could use a little more carbonation.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 hawthorne00 (1858) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - JAN 23, 2012
Bottle. Clear gold with a small white head that fades fast. Aroma of oranges, light tropical fruit, caramel. Rather sweet and quite fruity with bitterness that build to just about balancing.
