The colour was medium pale amber, and was quite cloudy with a strong head. The aroma was crisp, with orange citrus fruit. The taste was smooth and quite fruity, with wheat and yeast flavours, and light bitterness. This is a fresh smooth style with light spiciness. This beer has won numerous awards, including a gold at the Australian International Beer Awards in 1997, and a gold and overall champion at Brewersfest 1997.

Note 1 I am not really a beer expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these beers. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2 You may not agree with my evaluation of these beers as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on freshness and intense characteristic flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
