Can at home, from HOTM online, 24/02/2026.
Murky yellow to light golden topped with a well presented lasting white crown.
Nose is orange zest, stone fruit, grass, pine needle, mandarin.
Taste comprises pine resin, stone fruit, gooseberries, grass, pine needle, ripe melon, papaya.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come resinous hop bitterness.
Solid punchy IPA with a well balanced spattering of NZ hops in the mix, not as intense in this respect compared to some it the offerings out there but no bad thing in this case.
