Brewed in honour of the 2020 Bells Beach Rip Curl Pro, which COVID-19 killed off.

As Aussie as the competition it honours, brewed with all Aussie malt and hops, this XPA is Xtra pale, Xtra hoppy and Xtra refreshing.

I had this at the Melbourne Beer Festival in Catani Gardens, St. Kilda, in February 2024.

Appearance: The beer was crystal clear and bright golden yellow, topped with a thin, bright white head.

Smell: The aroma was light and fruity, but the muted aroma was expected since I drank it from a plastic cup.

Taste: The flavor was mild, with tropical notes and a touch of grapefruit, making it very smooth and mild, just as an XPA should be.

Mouthfeel: The beer had a smooth and full mouthfeel.

Overall Impression: This XPA was a lovely and easy-drinking beer.

Cheers!
