johnnyola (12), Australia Mar 21, 2008 Brought over with a friend of mine, been stored for some time. A refrshing beer with some wheaty tones. A medium bodied beer, with a short finish jkm (153), Australia Sep 18, 2007 Cloudy orange in colour with a thin frothy and rapidly disapating white head. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Moderate bitterness and a long-lasting crisp bitter finish. Refreshing. DuffMan (1961), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 9, 2007 This was the second-hardest micro to find while tramping around Tasmania. Finally caught up with it a grocery store on Wellington Street in Hobart. Briskly carbonated, champagne-like really, with loads of resinous peppery hoppiness in the aroma. I’m not sure what they use as malt, but the flavour profile was quite wheaty and a little estery (presumably from the yeast in the bottle), with lots of peppery hops dominating. The over-carbonation was distracting and made this less enjoyable. Interesting enough though. Thylacine (179), Tasmania, Australia Jun 19, 2007 A good frothy, off white, head initially but quickly diminishing to a thin layer. Very little lacing. Indistinct faintly hoppy aroma. Clear and amber in colour with a light to medium body and a nice, moderately bitter and lasting aftertaste. This is a bottle condition ale, unpasturised and unfiltered and yet there was no sediment in the bottle. Stew41 (883), Caulfield, Australia Apr 27, 2007 Buggar me! You think you know it all and yet another ne Oz micro hits my radar. Thin creamy head sits comfortably over orange / amber. Quite murky. Faintly sweet nose with a hint of banana. Flavour profile is quite unremarkable; more banana (albeit faint), a touch of licorice, but not much else. Thickens through the palate.
