From 750 ml bottle. Pours a hazy orange-amber with golden highlights and a fluffy white head. Aromas of biscuits, orange, flowers, honey and lemon. Taste begins with sweet malt and sultanas at the front end lifted by fresh citrus and pepper notes in the mid-palate. Honey, floral notes and pear towards the end. Soft, lingering finish with a fruity, slightly sweet aftertaste. Good Aussie take on the English style pale ale.

Purchased from my local BWS as a gift set containing the 750ml champagne-style bottle and two nicely branded Tulip glasses (for only AU$10 as discounted stock - so not that fresh). Pours hazy dark amber with a large rocky tightly-packed white head that reduces slowly and laces nicely. Aroma offers biscuity malts, orangey citrus plus light floral and piney notes. Taste is sweet malts before a moderate citrusy hop bitterness. Palate is lively and refreshing.with a medium body and oily texture. Not as hop -forward as I would imagine that a fresh bottle would taste like but still pretty nice.

750ml bottle. Slightly opaque, copper colour with an extremely aggressive, off-white, towering head which would have lasted for days and left the glass covered in lace. Aroma of bread, caramel, pine and raisins; very pleasant and nicely balanced. Light to medium sweetness and light to medium bitterness. Medium body, smooth texture and average carbonation (in spite of what was suggested during the pour). Long, nutty, bitter finish. This beer came in a champagne style bottle and was packaged to look like a million bucks, the cynic in me was therefore not expecting too much, how wrong was I. This beer is a belter, I wish I had another one.
