South Pacific Pale Ale
Kipling was the first UK beer to use the exquisite Nelson Sauvin hop from New Zealand. We brew this as a SMASH (Single Malt and Single Hop) using the heritage Maris Otter as a base malt which works to allow the complex flavour of this hop to really shine through. There is a grassy, grapefruit character on the nose, followed by passionfruit and mango. It finishes with a balanced and thirst-quenching bitterness.

Ein schönes spritziges Bier, das offenbar auch nach einer britischen Serienfigur benannt ist. Der Aromahopfen wird gezielt und nicht übertrieben eingesetzt und macht ein angenehm erfrischendes Mundgefühl. EIn Bier das ich mir gut im englischen Hitzesommer vorstellen kann.

Rocky white head left a froth on a golden coloured body. Zesty tropical fruit aroma. Medium bodied, sharp & clean. Tropical fruit, melon, pithy & bitter tastes. Refreshing.

Was für eine Hopfenbombe. Sehr voll, man hat das Gefühl es sei mehr Alkohol drin. Die angepriesene Fruchtigkeit geht fast etwas unter. Dennoch sehr lecker.

lattina 33 cl, schiuma bianca fine media persistenza, colore giallo pallido velato, al naso è intensa frutta tropicale kiwi vino bianco note erbacee, in bocca vino bianco aromatico pompelmo uva, corpo leggero, carbonazione moderata, dolce con amaro moderato, secca nel finale. Molto beverina e dissetante. Semplice e pulita. La mia prima dello stile. c. Cantina della birra 02.05.21

Bottle from Geers. Clear golden with a small, frothy, white head. Aroma of melon, pineapple, lime, hard pear, apple peel, honey, vague butter. Taste has sweetish melon, apple & pear, bitter grapefruit & pine, accent of zesty citrus rind, all the while yeasty with a honey malty body. Piney hoppy finish, yeasty, more melon & citrus peel. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Refreshing, sympathetic.
