Hallertau Brewery - Maximus Humulus Lupulus India Pale Ale

Sweet bitter aroma with a light golden appearance.  There is a toasty bitterness up front which is still quite smooth.  There is a light citrus and syrup flavour.  It has a fresh summer feel to it.  Right up my alley.

7/10

Renaissance Brewing Company - Enlightenment Bloody RIPA Red Rye IPA

The aroma is sweet with berry and a light rye.  It has a deep red appearance.  There is a strong bitterness here but it is quite fresh.  The rye is quite earthy and toasty.  The berry flavour is very deep and rich but sits very deep in the profile.  This is a strong flavoured beer which may be too much for some.

7/10

Seven Sheds Brewery - Peated Scotch Ale

The aroma is a sweet cherry and woody with a dark red appearance.  This is a full on beer.  The smoke is really strong an I don't get alot of other flavours.  It's tastes like a liquid ash and smoke.  It's really interesting but not that enjoyable.

3/10

Boatrocker Brewery - Ramjet Whisky Barrel Aged Imperial Stout

There is a rich sweet chocolate aroma with a syrupy black appearance.  The best way to describe this beer is an alcoholic chocolate syrup.  It has a richness and a silkiness.  It's a massive beer which will a rewarding undertaking.

9/10

Granite Belt Brewery - Poziėres Porter Black Beer

The aroma is tart and sour with a dark cooper appearance.  This is a very tangy beer.  It has more of a wine flavour profile than a beer profile.  There is a light fizziness with a dark fruit note.  Not for me.

4/10

Garage Project - Cereal Milk Stout

Considering this beer is so black that no light can enter the aroma is very subtle chocolate.  The beer is very smooth with a right a crisp chocolate biscuit flavour.  The malt is spicy and well balanced.  This is up there with Thirsty Crows Milk Stout.

9/10

Granite Belt Brewery - Hatters Wheat Witbier

This has a sweet buttery aroma with a cloudy straw apperance.  Surprisingly I get strawberry with a zesty tangy mouth feel.  It's a very fresh and lively beer.
