Tap. Cloudy yellowish orange with almost no head. Grainy aroma with some flowers, pears and spices. Feels alive in the mouth and is slightly creamy. Light grainy sweetness with typical lager hint of sourness and mild peppery bitterness. Good.

On tap at Australian Hotel. Hazy amber with a thin white head and a mild aroma and flavour with some low level bitterness

had on tap at the Australian Hotel. small white head on a golden body, hints of grass and lemon.

Tonight was the first time I’ve ever returned a beer, this was undrinkable. Heavily clouded piss yellow with visible sediment. Very strong sulfur and wet gym socks smell that carried over to the flavour. Certainly there is big bitterness there but I couldn’t get past that smell. There must be a fault with the keg or the lines because there is no way this beer could be intentionally made this way. This was at the Australian Hotel in Sydney, I asked the bar staff (politely) to dispose of the glass.

Draught at the Australian Hotel, Sydney. Pours golden with a small white head. Aroma of sweet malt, citrus, cut grass and honey. The flavour is sweet malt, citrus and grass. Soft carbonation and light bodied, with good bitterness in the finish.

Draught at the George IV Inn. Arrived a straw golden orange with a frothy white head which was mostly diminishing. Aroma was of sweet malts, honey, lemon with some grassy, slightly spicy hops. Flavor was again sweetish malts a light bitterness, honey, lemon citrus, wet paper (mild) and a hint of pepper. Light bodied with medium carbonation, slight watery texture, dry mouthfeel (mild) and a ok finish.

Poured a deep golden yellow. Complex flavours of citrus, hops and salt. Very interesting and complex in style. Not bland. Need to try it again to better get across it.

Tap @ Australian - Sydney. Bright gold, creamy white head. slightly cloudy. Nice aroma of meadow with citrus notes. Citrus notes thru the palate too. Pretty nice beer.
