The colour was light pale amber gold, and it had a moderate head. There was a crisp citrus hop aroma. The taste was very crisp and clean with strong fruity hop and light spiciness. This was a quite bitter, very pleasant fresh style. This is their info: crisp, floral hop aroma with a rich malty sweetness that is beautifully balanced by its spicy hop bitterness. Brewski is very popular with the truly discerning beer drinker, it's saaz hops give it a very distinct flavour. Brewski was judged New Zealand's best beer when it won the supreme award at the NZ International Beer Awards.
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 of this particular beer, on my recommendation, and then regret it!
Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these beers, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
