Tried on-tap at the brewery during Sydney Craft Beer Week. Beer was brewed to support local radio station FBi, and was brewed using Davidson plum but in the hoppy American Red Ale style, purportedly.
Pours, in fact, a solid amber hue, with perhaps a tinge of red to it, perfectly clear when held to the light. Body is really very light. Head is a pleasant creamy white hue that leaves impressive lace. Overall, it looks pretty decent.
Nose is hoppy, but with a slightly herbal, slightly ashy hop character for the most part. Slight cereal grain character comes through, possibly just the conflation of the leafy hops and the sweetness. It's solid and decent without being exciting.
Taste is mild and smooth on entry, again progressing into those slightly grainy malt characters mid-palate. Fortunately, the hops do manage to cut through it a little, leaving a relatively clean finish by the end. Aftertaste is smooth, with a rustic, slightly herbal bite to it.
Overall, it's not bad stuff. It tends toward bland rather than flavoursome, but it's solid enough.
