Brewery: Hope Estate Brewery in Hunter Valley, NSW Style: Red Rye Imperial IPA ABV: 9% Rate Beer: not listed on Rate Beer Pour: Toffee amber in colour with a fast fading slightly off white head. The rye malt really dominates early on with this beer. It masks any hop bitterness or sweeter malts that you’d associate with a red IPA. This beer certainly […]
Brewery: Pinnacle Drinks in Surry Hills, NSW Style: Berliner Weisse ABV: 3.5% Rate Beer: no rating yet Pour: Rosè pink colour with a bubbly white head. Raspberries on the nose, the colour and on the tongue. Quite carbonated but not much tartness like you’d expect for a beer of this style. I think this beer could be at home in a champagne […]
Brewery: Pinnacle Drinks in Surry Hills, NSW Style: Kolsch ABV: 4.4% Rate Beer: no rating yet Pour: That typical golden beer colour with a good white head.

Brewery: Mountain Culture in Katoomba, NSW Style: Red IPA ABV: 8% Rate Beer: 95/100 Pour: Golden red in colour with a good cream colour head. Strong malt aromas, sweet piney flavour. Balanced bitterness in a surprisingly easy drinking beer for its ABV. Tropical stone fruit flavours underlines by a caramel maltiness.
