Morboso (208) - Queensland, AUSTRALIA - JAN 6, 2022
UPDATED: JAN 6, 2022 Welcoming wet sock aroma on a wet sock qld summer cyclonish day. Pours heady, golden brown and creamy. That wet sock aroma again but a lemon zing as well, and some of that fermented blueberry alcohol estery fume as well. Taste is delicious, low carbonation and lovely depth. Some grapefruit and soupy ipa goodness, but bloody smooth, bitter profile must have been dyno tuned to maintain a curve as balanced as this. Strong. Nice. Put off by the price at first but worth it.

ANZUShophunter (2343) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - OCT 15, 2021
UPDATED: OCT 15, 2021 From can (BB Mar'22) in IPA glass. Pours hazy golden amber w/1-finger white head, aroma is a bit subtle at first: trop fruit & pine. Fairly well-balanced and easy drinking for 6.5%, mild bitterness in tail

aussiealchemist (121) - Officer Victoria, AUSTRALIA - MAR 25, 2021
UPDATED: MAR 25, 2021 Pours clear gold with medium white head. Aroma is strong, citrus, tropical, pine etc. Taste is full on fruity ipa with solid malt sweetness. Taste is mid bitterness with enough sweetness to balance nicely. Good full mouthful. Overall a very reasonable IPA. Nicely balanced with plenty of flavour.

sm89walt (2530) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - MAR 12, 2021
UPDATED: MAR 12, 2021 375ml can. Poured a hazy golden amber with a tall, dense, slowly dissipating light beige head. Aromas of mango, nectarine, pineapple, grapefruit. Mid-weight with plenty of malt to balance, medium carbonation and a lingering resinous, pink grapefruit bitterness.

kata.u (109) - Nagoya, JAPAN - MAR 8, 2021
UPDATED: MAR 8, 2021 Can. Hazy orange/golden color. Zesty aroma. Grapefruits, mango, zesty aroma and good bitterness. Fizzy mouth feel. Lasting mild bitterness in the aftertaste.

3.3
Samma (1000) - Fitzroy, AUSTRALIA - JAN 3, 2021
UPDATED: JAN 3, 2021 Can. Deep gold. Pine needle nose. Much sweeter than I expected. Plays off ok against resin, but a bit more bitterness would delight.

jase3812 (263) - AUSTRALIA - NOV 13, 2020
UPDATED: NOV 13, 2020 This is all the things an IPA should be. Little bitter, hint of zest and pine. Easy enough to drink and lingers on the palate well after it’s travelled down the throat. Well crafted and very enjoyable. This is a beer to enjoy at a Christmas party on a late Friday afternoon. You’ve finished work. Had time for a shower and a shave and scrub up pretty good and now it’s time to have a few ales as the sun sets and get into the Christmas cheer.

doylerdrinks (21) - IRELAND - AUG 5, 2020
UPDATED: AUG 5, 2020 Pours a golden and hazy amber. Small quickly dissolving white head. Smells of pine, citrus and grapefruit. Initial taste of bitterness, grapefruit, opens to a fruity, juicy taste. Sweet. finishes crisp and bitter with mild sweetness behind. Yep a good drinkable IPA. For a 6.5 it drinks very well, a safe bet.

4.2
ChewyBeer (565) - AUSTRALIA - JUL 12, 2020
UPDATED: JUL 12, 2020 Appearance: slightly hazy golden Aroma: tropical fruit, tangerine, Mouthfeel: medium full Taste: pine, resin, citrus Overall: decent beet but needs a little more hop punch

3.3
Pyobon (2279) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - JAN 8, 2020
UPDATED: JAN 8, 2020 (Can) Pours cloudy (and I left plenty of sediment in the can) amber with small white head. Restrained pleasant fruity piney aroma. Nice palate - medium body with great carbonation. Nice hoppy IPA. Some tangy fruit at start but quiet restrained. Nice biscuit malt with peppery hoppy bitterness build in the mid palate with that peppery hoppy bitterness staying on for a long finish. Very drinkable.
