Whipper Snapper is a Hazy IPA that doesn’t beat around the bush: juicy and unapologetically aromatic.
The base of lager malts and flaked oats keeps the body smooth, silky, and never heavy, while the dry-hop of Kohatu, Mosaic, and Krush Cryo blasts notes of Cabernet Sauvignon grape, ripe mango, and mandarin peel, fresh and direct, with no permission asked.
A Hazy IPA, no doubt, but cheeky, very New Zealand, and made to drink again without regrets.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 22/03/2026.
Moderately hazed golden orange topped with a just off white head that thins to a swirl.
Nose is juicy tropical fruit flesh, papaya, hint of mango, pine tickle.
Taste comprises orange pith, grapefruit, pine resin, mandarin, tangerine, grass, hint of gooseberries.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come lightly resinous hop bitterness.
Tidy IPA.
