Draught at Redoak Beer Boutique. Pours a clear medium amber with an off white head. Smells nicely of floral and citrus hops. Tastes of a passion fruit and grapefruit sweetness, with a large bitterness to follow. Medium bodied, light carbonation, oily/syrupy texture. Finishes bitter with a long duration.

Pours a cloudy amber colour with a white head. Aroma is fruity with notes of pine and grapefruit. Taste is also fruity with grapfruit leading to a decent bitter finish. Pretty good.

Tap. Clear gold body with a large white head. Aroma-taste: resinous, floral herbal hop notes, hay, caramel. Medium to full bodied. Nice.

Draught. Pours Clr copper orange with well laced off white head. 4 Rusty grassy hops with a decent bouquet grains and 7 Decent bitterness over a complex malt body, biscuits, pitted fruit, toast 7 O 16 P 3 A touch rusty, hops lingering 

Tap, a bit too cold at RedOak. Orangeish amber, small light beige head. Very hoppy nose - floral, with pine and spice, darkish toffee - smells fabulous. Taste has very moderate sweetness - it’s pretty dry, despite deep toffee. Nectarines, kumquats, mild hard spices. Just a _little_ window cleanerish. Nice balance, but genuinely highly hopped in both aroma and bitterness. Traditional but bold.

On tap at Redoak. Review from notes. Pours a deep amber with good creamy slightly offwhite head. Nice looking beer. Good hop aromas with the usual suspects. Plenty of grapefruit and pine needles. Soft light caramel to hold it all together. Flavours are pretty much identical. Soft light caramel sweetness with plenty of resiny hops. OK Bitter finish. Probably my pick out of their beers.

tap at redoak. quite floral on the nose. flavours of floral hops with plenty of citrus and some grassiness. finish is bitter, but not overly so. decent ipa.

Draught at Redoak, Sydney. I think the ratings here may have got mixed up with the American IPA that was on earlier in the year. Anyway they are two completely different beers. This one is based on the classic English style IPA and a it’s very good one at that. It has a finely balanced malt character of caramel and biscuit and the English hops do well for support - fruit and resiny. A good hop presence and a nice punch of bitterness but pleasant enough on the palate. Dry and bitter finish. A very nice IPA.

Tap. Delicious and strong. Aromas of grass, fruit, and caramel. Flavour is long-lasting, sweet start with a bitter ending. Silky in the palate, and medium body. Orange in colour, with a creamy lasting head.

Nice balanced IPA. Aroma of the Fuggles comes through, the appearence is copper with thin head. Flavour is a nice initial burst of malt sweetness with some almost raisiny character coming through. Finish is nice and bitter but not too over the top. Certainly a classy IPA against some of the brutish IPA’s out at the moment.
