Notes: Aroma: vitually noe, slight citrus edge.Paal straw in colour, No head, with a falvour reminisent of an infected hombrewed wheatbeer. Pretty nasty. ALLOVATE (1127), Perth, Australia Mar 7, 2006 First beer off the rank at Fremantle’s International ’How much can you drink?’ fest. Honestly was a great day for myself; wife’s at work, stinkin’ hot, not much shade and a couple of thousand tanked Sand groper’s bouncing around demanding more beer for their enjoyment. Anyway, onto the beer. Tasted on draught; opaque lemony straw body through the plastic cup. Decent sized head formed that managed to last and trail globs of sticky froth in it’s wake. Tangy wheat nose with a balance of tart ginger, grapefruit and pineapple. Wheat flavour is predominant in the mouth, quite grainy and pasty with undertones of pine-nuts, light biting herbs and a souring malt edge down the sides. Very light in body and a little too charged in carbonation which affected the mouthfeel. Becomes tangy in the back as it warms but still finishes rather fresh with a light hint of grainy wheat, ginger-root and pineapple. This was a little undemanding, but it was refreshing so for that it did its job. Matso’s had the busiest tent of the event for the time I was there so this one must also agree with the younger patrons who turned up in there droves. Easy drinker. bluevegie (1853), Perth, Australia Nov 7, 2005 Tried this on tap at Clancy’s Subiaco. Slightly murky pale straw body with a below average head and some lacing. At the first sip you could notice the lemon characters then on the second try some ginger came through, almost medium body, simple, inoffensive and went down easily enough. A cross between a ginger beer and a lemon shandy.
