Das Kiwi Ale ist ein schlankes Pale Ale nach der Rezeptur unseres Bier-Sommeliers Oliver Schmidt. Die ausgewählte Kombination heller Malze und der daraus resultierende schlanke Körper verleiht dem Kiwi Ale seine Spritzigkeit und macht es somit zum idealen Sommerbier. Ausschließlich mit neuseeländischem Hopfen gebraut, besticht dieses Ale mit sehr zurückhaltender Bittere und einem angenehm fruchtigen Aroma. Die vier edlen Aromahopfensorten geben dem Ale eine schöne Hopfenblume und ein intensives Fruchtaroma.
Eine leichte Citrus- und Melonennote gehen einher mit starken Noten von Quitte, Stachelbeere und Maracuja. Eine Brise grüner Apfel und süsse Früchte (wie z.B. auch Kiwi) rundet das Ganze ab.

330ml bottle. Slightly milky, yellow-ish golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Fruity and minimally citrusy hoppy aroma reminds of kiwi indeed. Taste is fruity and minimally citrusy hoppy, grassy and fruity flavours combine to built a "kiwi-effect", minimally sweet pale, biscuity malty basis.

Bouteille: Golden, hazy, small and stable white foamy layer; spicy herbal to floral nose completed by fruity illusions of fresh Riesling Wein; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light bodied and quite soft; slightly lingering dryish herbal-bitter finish, fortunately the Riesling shows up once more. Really refreshing…

Draught at BKL München 2016.
Orange, hazy body, with a medium, creamy, white head.
Aroma of citrus, orange, passion fruit, grapes, some lychee, some biscuit.
Taste is quite light, with citrus, grass, some grapefruit, orange, subtle tropical fruits, some biscuit.
Light, slick mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes moderate, a bit bitter, a bit dry, zesty, grassy, fruity.

Nice one, but nothing special. Too light taste for me, but the nose is nice and full fruity. Good APA, but I’ve had much better ones.

0.33 l bottle from ’Vormann Brauerei’, best before November 2016. Clear, golden yellow with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, fruity-resiny aroma of lychee, passion fruit, pineapple and some pine. Sweetish-fruity, slightly resiny, minimally grassy taste of lychee, passion fruit, pineapple and some pine, followed by a short, medium bitter, grassy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, average carbonation. Nice and refreshing!

On tap @ Spirits&Beer 2015. Round and smooth. Earthy beginning, fresh, smooth. Floral earthy with an intense floral mild beginning. Hints of water but round and fresh. Nice New Zeeland Hop characteristics.
