Pours a cloudy orange yellow, with cream-coloured thin head. Light bead, and good sticky lace. Pretty nice.

Nice malty smell, with slight caramel notes, hints of some spicy hops with the aroma of capsicum and tobacco. Not bad at all.

Taste has a lot of tang on it. Some citrus, mandarin and some pine resin. Litle bit sweet on the mid, with a bready malt character as well. Finish is quite bitter, but short with a little bit of a dank hang. Not great, but alright.

Nice bit of stickiness on the feel, quite full overall. Bit of a tingle. Quite good actually, gentle on the palate.

Fairly drinkable, but could have been more. Bit more of a bitter finish, maybe a bit more malt for the front.

Thanks to Brendan B for this one.
a) Golden amber, white varied 1" head
s) Metallic hop note, soapy, apple flesh. Extract/homebrew notes.
f) Hints of ginger, slight crystal hint. Medium/light bitterness, more balanced than the Pale Ale. But still noticably an extract ale.
m) Medium light, full length palate
d) Refreshing and drinkable, like a mate's reasonable homebrew effort. But not a good commercial offering.
