The NZ Cascade demonstrates how terroir can really impact a hop variety, with notes of red berry and orchard fruit shining through, unlike the resinous character of its US counterpart. This is complemented with Nectaron’s pineapple and nectarine flavours, while Nelson Sauvin and Riwaka bring white grape and passion fruit to the mix.
The hops used in this DDH IPA were harvested in March and in your glass by May, a true celebration of freshness and flavour. It has a thick, luxurious texture and whole fruit basket of hops - worthy of any royal court.

Can. A light haze on this yellow gold beer, small and short lived pale cream colour head. Light minerally crisp palate, semi dry. Thin pale malts, a mild creamy sweetness. Hops bring crisp cooling pine. A mild nip of hop spice. Good light juicy stone fruits and Riwaka lychee and exotics. Mild Nelson gooseberry, slightly tangy. Minerally crisp finish finds all elements coming together very well. Good hop concept and delivery.
