"A delicious medium-strength pale ale. Delicate balance of malt and light hop with a dry fruity finish. Perfect with beef, fish or any other food, or just forget the meal."

A: Hazy and oddly sediment heavy tawny tone with a thick, quick falling head

S: A lashing waft of floral hops and tropical fruits covering a small stash of grains

T: Sweet little dollop of caramel malt top off a huge sweet corn/sugared fruit kick that crushes all hope of this being a balanced brew. As with most over handled beers there is a metallic tint to the finish.

M: Again with the Storm Brewing the mouthfeel is so dry and sugared that it requires another drink to cleanse and quench the palate.

O: Massive fail on this brew, as much as I'd like to high five the craft aspect, an average commercial beer would have been satisfying. It's super dryness and over ripe fruitiness is very similar to the Bronze Ale only lacking a distinct character.

Drinking this beer in my air-conditioned hotel room in Bali was much more beneficial to my opinion than drinking it in the heat, where in a cool room the beer is much more refreshing.

Beer smells like a home brewed pale ale, and has a very similar murky bronze, sediment-heavy appearance.

Poured into a glass from its bottle, has a fleeting bitterness, replaced by a malty, almost sweet flavour. This beer is incredibly dry, and not particularly refreshing in the heat, however it suffices in the cooler temperatures.

Aftertaste has a slight copper flavour to it, as well as fruity aromatic scent that lingers. This is by far one of the more average golden ales that I have tried.

This one was light amber in colour with some chill haze. Whitish cap formed on the pour, settling to a thin collar and skim of fine bubbles. The aroma was mostly fruity - tropical and pineapple - with a bit of malt in the background. Low bitterness, sweet and fruity with less tropical character, cereal grains and a bit of caramel, plus a slight metallic harshness in the finish. Light bodied and bone dry with fizzy carbonation. This missed the mark for me. It was drinkable in the tropical heat, but there were much better beers available from this brewer so there was no reason to have more than one bottle.
