Nose is punchy tropicana, grass, pine resin, mandarin.
Taste comprises grass, hop spice, mango flesh, grapefruit, pine resin.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close spiked with juicy come resinous hop bitterness.
Tidy hop shizzle.

Can. A modest haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head that doesn't last. Light palate, a mild dryness, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a fairly forward creamy sweetness but stays the right side of overcooked. Light smooth pine. A good Motueka key lime. Some mildly tangy stone fruits and decent Nelson grape. Light finish. Nicely fruity dipa, a bit of hop spice and pep and this woulda been top drawer.

Hazy yellow with a frothy, white head. Pineapple and pineapple rind aroma with sweeter, mango undertones. Taste is bitter and mildly acidic with sporadic marshmallow sweetness underneath. Long, citric bitter finish. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, smooth, dry. Good one.
