| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 16, 2009 330ml bottle. A little cloudy when poured but quickly settles to a amber honey colour with a large loose head. Floral hop and citrus aromas abound and a crisp mildly bitter flavour greets you. Quite enjoyable and refreshing. bluebetty (149), Australia
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 3, 2009 Bottle. Pours a nice amber with minimal head. Flavours show plenty of hop character with pine & citrus notes. Really nice aroma and certainly nicer than expected. Flavours shows plenty of malt with some caramel and a little toffee. Finishes with some hop character though probably not as expressive as nose indicated. Plenty of balance. Great beer. Stew41 (1059), Caulfield, Australia
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 29, 2009 This is miles better than early versions when Moo Brew was just getting off the ground. Wonderful to look at; glowing cloudy orange with a thin head. Nose is very expressive and lifted with intense oranges and tropical fruit. Really quite striking. The flavours are much more serious and show genuine pale ale chracter; firm, bitter hops, some piney notes, but surprsingly the fruit offered on the nose is a bit hard to find. Doesn’t harm the beer though. Well worth it’s percentile rating. Davros (254), Australia
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 19, 2009 Caramel amber pour with a small fading head.
Loads of fresh pungent hops first up on the nose, with citrus underneath as well as some tangy lemon. Sweet clean malt follows with some faint caramel.
Lots of caramel flavours, followed by a green citrusy hop finish.
Medium-rich body, nice light carbonation.
Very refreshing.

Needs more hop flavour. Underhopped or too much malt even with thin body. theisti (1699), Leawood, Kansas, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 14, 2009 330 ml bottle from alagnak. Pour is heavy haze golden darker yellow with a nice two inch white head that falls with nice patchy lacing. Aroma of mineral earthy slight resin ane pineapple citrus hop. Taste is dirty mineral earthiness with nutty malt and the resin and citrus hop. Nice balance between the malt and hop. Palate is medium to light, mid carbonation. Finish is flinty, sharp mineral (bordering on metallic) and dry. Palate highlights the very unfiltered nature of this one. I really loved the bottle shape on this. Thanks for thinking of me during your travels Chris. BarossaLuke (117), Australia
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 2, 2009 On tap at the Wheatsheaf. Beautiful hoppy aroma that just draws you in and does not dissappoint. The bitterness is balanced by a good malt backbone making the beer well balanced. This is definitely one for the hop heads out there, would drink again and again! rhensens (4), Australia does not count | 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Aug 28, 2009 While this beer is ok it is really overpriced and is probably more designed for the upperclass snob with its packaging, still all that aside if iwas offerd a bottle i would not hesitate in saying yes please
