On-draught @ The Anchor, Airlie Beach, Australia.

Hop profile is timid, which is my polite way of saying it's weak with subpar hop pungency for a pale ale. But the hop character is nice enough...lemony with hints of coconut and vague tropical fruit. Clean 2-row, maybe even some malted wheat (?).

Imbalanced in the sense that it's not hop emphatic enough for the intended style, but not a bad brew. Certainly drinkable and refreshing. Better than Balter XPA, which is all I can really find in the rest of Airlie Beach on-draught.

C+ / ABOVE AVERAGE
