3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 jonnyguns (384) - - MAR 9, 2013
Bottle from Carlisle celebrations. Golden hazy pour with a frothy white head. Highly carbed up! Explodes into the glass. Citrus, stone fruit and pine needles in the aroma. Slight sweetness in the taste. More citrus hops coming through. The over carbonation works well actually. Not too bad

2.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 Brenhophead (382) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - MAR 3, 2013
500mL bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy golden hue with a massive dense head indicating slight over carbonation. Very nice topical fruit like aroma although as soon as it hits the tongue its a massive burst of bubbles (definitely over carbonated). Had to pick any flavours the the massive of bubbles dancing through my mouth. I will rerate at a later date.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Rangi (381) - NEW ZEALAND - MAR 1, 2013
Hazy yellow poor with small lingering head clinging to the glass. Aroma is at 1st nice pleasant grassy resiny hops. First couple of sips nice kick of bitterness that refreshes my palate. Flavour is of resiny grassy hops and some citrus fruit.The flavour I find changes as I consume the beverage from pleasant amount of flavour to bordering on bland and then Back again. Its probably just me coming down off a week of night shift. Nice refreshing beer for what was a nice warm day.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20 halfbaked (47) - - FEB 8, 2013
Nice sharp hit of hop flavour in the aroma and straight up in the first taste. Slightly sweet with citrus notes. Medium carbonation carries the strong but balanced bitterness. Good flavour, liked it.

3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 bluebetty (1019) - AUSTRALIA - NOV 25, 2012
Bottle. Pours a light bronze. Some haziness. Decent slightly off white head. Hangs around forever. Plenty of lacing down the glass. Aromas of fresh hops, citrus - maninly grapefruit, and passionfruit. Plenty of light caramel and perhaps a hint of light floral honey. Nothing overly assertive but nicely balanced. Flavours a quite sweet initially before the resiny hops show through. Bitterness if not overly assertive but balances out the sweetness. Medium / thin mouthfeel. Good stuff.

2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 LesArgen (131) - AUSTRALIA - NOV 9, 2012
This cloudy, amber offering positively sparkles as it swirls in the glass, and the beige head gives off an aroma of grapefruit, honey, resin and a little sweet strawberry. It’s in the tasting where this beer falls down. the hops provide the dominant flavour, but they’re pretty muted, and the palate is watery and short.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Davros (1481) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - OCT 31, 2012
Pours amber with a fading head.
Nose shows lots of floral and some tropical hops. Also some grassy notes and a fair bit of sweet clean malt underneath.
The grassy note follows as a flavour, too much dry-hopping perhaps? Other than that there’s a fair bit of sweet malt and tropical fruit.
Could use more carbonation.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 davidm (1777) - Melbourne, AUSTRALIA - OCT 27, 2012
On tap at the Alehouse project. Very well balanced. Aroma if floral, with grass and citrus. Taste is sweet, with bitter notes, and good length. Palate is velvety, and medium bodied. Amber, with a frothy head.
