Can. Hazy gold beer, small and short lived bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a very mild dryness, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth light pale malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. The hops, for me, are nicely dominated by Nectaron, slightly tangy but juicy and intense stone fruits. Nelson provides a good white wine brightness that goes with stone fruits like, well use your imagination of great couplings! Motueka really a bit part player here, mild key lime on the back end. I think it's absence would be slippery more noticeable than its presence. Light crispy finish brings a mild hop spice and shows rounded skunk. There is a light layer of cooling pine, because of course there is. Super duper DIPA.

440ml can. Murky yellow with a white head. Aroma of peach, mango, grapefruit, lime. Taste follows, peachy, mango, grapefruit, zesty lime, passionfruit and some light vinous notes, low bitterness. Medium bodied.
