Bottle. Golden with a slight white head. Aroma of grapefruit and tropical fruits, with a touch of malt sweetness. Flavour had a lot more fruit, plenty of biscuity malts and culminated in a dryish finish. Good.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Niksko (118) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - JUN 4, 2013
Pours a clear light golden yellow with one finger of white head that fades quickly. Aroma is passionfruit, mango and some biscuit. Lovely and juicy. Flavour is slighty piney, some grapefruit bitterness, a bit of a pineapple/fruit punch flavour and some slight roast on the finish. Bitterness is moderate but not over the top, and body is medium. A pretty tasty beer, but nothing outstanding.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Maris (772) - Canberra, AUSTRALIA - NOV 26, 2012
From a 330ml bottle on 26/11/2012. Pours an almost clear light golden with a biggish head. Has a quite pleasant floral, citrus fruit aroma. The flavour features a dash of sweet and tart citrus, followed by a relatively pronounced bitterness. A pretty good APA, And I like the bottles they use.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 fletchfighters (840) - AUSTRALIA - AUG 7, 2012
A--- an orange carmel color, a good 2 finger white head that kept its retention through the drink. Nice sticky lacing on the glass.
S-- Some carmel but a good amount of grapefruit, lemon, and orange citrus and floral and pine in it as well. Very nice nose on this beer. Smells like an APA but a little more bready
T-- Balanced between carmel malt, and citrus. Had a biscuit quality to this as well, the yeast and malt.
M-- Med carbonation and was light in the mouth and did finish dry. Had a good balance between the hops and the malt. Had a good mix of sweet and citrus.
D-- Very drinkable and got more bitter as it warmed up. I Liked the Biscuit side of this beer. Was quite nice. negative is the price. Generally expect to pay about $20 for a 4 pack and about $8-9 in a restaurant. it is a good beer and very could drink a few before noticing anything. A lower ABV at under 5%. Other negative is that their beers are just plain rare to find in restaurants and in bottleshops. Why the lower score on the drinkability.

This is C+ pale ale. Most forgettable (not the price though!), it joins the legion of other average Australian APAs.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 BeerChaser0078 (909) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - APR 25, 2012
Bottle. Pours a hazy, deep amber with a small loose off-white head. Lots of citrusy hops on the nose and some grassy, herbal notes as well as a mild malty toffee undertone and a vague mineral aroma. Flavours of grapefruit, lemon, lime, pine, caramel and pepper are all present. Mouthfeel is light and a little oily with moderate carbonation and a lingering bitter, mildly spicy finish. Everything adds up to this being a pretty good pale ale yet it somehow seems a little rough around the edges, a little unrefined. Quite drinkable all the same.
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Sevenlee (905) - Central Coast, NSW, AUSTRALIA - FEB 12, 2012
Pours a slightly cloudy amber colour with an off white head. Aroma is floral hops with notes of fruits and citrus. Taste is also citrus fruits leading to a decent lingering bitter finish. Pretty good.

Definitely American style with nice citrusy aftertaste, light and thirst quenching. Best of the Moo-brews, beats the hop harvest specialnif you ask me
