Definitely a bright yellow color. The nose is pretty subdued with some tart apple, a bit of crackery grain and hint of hops. It's not much more complex on the palate, but it's also not meek. There's just enough hoppy bite to make it interesting and very drinkable. Reminiscent of a kolsch, this is a great session beer. It's got plenty of flavour, just the right amount of body and it's absolutely refreshing.

Looks yellow and clear (both make me suspicious in an ale.)
I Smell a little lemon and a little malt.
Tastes are a bit stronger and mild to medium bitterness. Dry.
Mouthfeel is light bodied, medium to heavy carbonation. Crisp.
OA: A decent session beer; but will look for others on this visit.

Reviewed in Roger Protz' "300 More Beers To Try Before You Die!" He thought it was more interesting than I did.

Orange and filtered, with a few slow rising bubbles. Topped with an orange tinged 5 finger head.

Smells floral of orange blossoms,
oranges, baby powder and a hint of hoppy dankness.

Tastes lightly of oranges, a
big balance of malty backbone, a nice doughy yeast, and a light tannic hop note to wrap it up.

Medium body, moderate to low carbonation.

Got this in Western Australia, enjoying it in Thailand Aug 29th, 2017. Very blananced and enticing me to drink more!

330ml bottle poured into a pint glass.

Clear bright gold in color, the pour builds up thick creamy white head that stays with very good retention before slowly subsiding to an everlasting foamy crown and leaving limited amount of lacing.

Mild aroma of floral, woody, and green hop as well as some crisp citrus. Malt is obviously displayed with its bread in kind of Munich malt and sweet caramel.

Pretty clean taste of malt as the backbone of the flavor structure with its sweetness, breadiness, and caramel. Hop discloses in the middle with notes of citrus, grass, floral, woody, and subtle bitterness while the end and aftertaste is quite lasting with woody and grassy hop flavor. The fruity hop is more assertive when the beer starts to warm.

The body is medium with some crisp and moderate carbonation through the palate, quite smooth through the mouthfeel with quite refreshing touch and a dry finish.

Crisp, clean, and tasty overall with good balance between malt and hop, it is so sessionable brew.

330ml bottle into 350ml beer glass.

Poured a clear light brown, with a loose one finger head that dies and keft a few big, loose bubbles.

A little tropical fruit on the nose and some buscuit malt aroma. Not expressive or complex but OK.

Palate is nice with some tropical fruit and nice malts. Some bitterness on the fiish. Well balanced/

Mouth is very nice - quite creamy.

Overall a very nice, well-balanced beer. Let down by how it looks.

On tap at brewery. Very grainy, cereal nose and taste. Pale golden body, clear with small airy white head. Elements of kolsch, if body was lighter. Slick and creamy

From bottle, citrus and tropical-leaning fruits balanced by sweeter caramel and biscuity malts. Light to medium body, medium carbonation. Very nice and enjoyable.
