This beer's colour was strong amber orange brown, and it had a moderate head. There was a crisp hop fruit aroma, and the flavour was very bitter hoppy with citrus grapefruit, and a light malt balance. This beer was intensely flavoured with quite good balance. It won a BrewNZ 2004 gold medal.
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.
