Golden and slightly hazy, with lots of very tiny, fast rising bubbles. Topped with 4 fingers of off white head.
Smells of flower blossoms, candied peaches, and canned pineapple.
The taste is of intense, but distinct, with both fruity and floral qualities of peaches, mangos, and rosebuds.
Light body with moderate to low carbonation.
Got at CentFest in Chiang Mai, drinking it at my place in this city, June 10th, 2018. Not a style I find much of, but the flavour is really good.

I had a 330ml bottle. This is a seasonal Australian summer release available from early October until stocks run out.
Appearance: Pours nice clean straw yellow colour with strong white 1cm head that remained through the drink.
Aroma: Excellent. I was very surprised. The hop aroma is strong and evident with tropical fruit and citrus aromas coming through. Considering this is a summer ale I was very surprised at how much hop presence was there.
Flavour: An excellent balance. The hop flavours come through well at the front of the mouth and the bitterness is tight but not overwhelming. Enough to make this a very sessionable thirst quenching and moreish beer. The finish also has a soft mouthfeel, possibly from the fact that there is a wheat grain used.
Overall: A very surprising beer. Not what I was expecting of a summer ale however given Little Creatues credibility I should have had more confidence. There is an abundance of hop aroma and flavour and excellent balance on the bitterness. This is excellent and worthwhile trying before it runs out. I am a little perplexed as to what the full grain bill is. The Brewer mentions the light character but I do not see this as a full wheat beer, it has more body than that. It is a pity they don't spell this out a bit more for the enthusiasts!
