Endangered Species No. 59. Brewed with an all-Australian hop bill featuring super-fresh Galaxy, Enigma, and Eclipse hops. It howls with tropical aroma & flavour - delivering waves of passionfruit, juicy peach, ripe pineapple, zesty citrus, all wrapped in a soft, hazy body. Bold, feral, & unapologetically primal, Dire Wolf is our tribute to something wild reborn.

Panda thanks to Cloin. Near clear gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Light pale malts, a light smooth sweetness. Cooling pine hops intro. A mild hop spice bite. Eclipse seems to dominate the hops here, quite the forward peachy stone fruits with slightly tangy sharpness that sets it aside from Peacharine. Whisper of lime on the crisp finish. Light, hoppy and drinkable.

Taste comprises bitter orange, grass, pine needle, ripe melon, grapefruit, air malts.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close punctured with light juicy come grassy hop bitterness.
