Draft - Loght banana yeasty notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Lots of yeasty esters and sweetness. Some bubblegum and the usual suspects.

On tap at Brassneck, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out crisp crackery malt, classic tanginess from the Nelson Sauvin, and some citrus. Flavour is very well-balanced, with the Nelson Sauvin hops upfront, balanced well by crisp crackery malt with a noticeable English quality. Highly drinkable and thirst-quenching. Very nice stuff.

Hazy pale amber, bubbly head. Light, floral kiwihop aroma, the hops are up front, dry, clean, nice lacing, good pale malt. Honeyish and floral. Refreshing....nice beer, dialed in to what they’re doing in NZ these days.

Light amber color, hazy, with small head. Easy ale, with not much character, with some presence of vegetables, and not much of the promised hops. I have to say at least that this one is fairly clean.

Hazy amber color with compact head. Mild aroma of malt and less of hops. Dry mouthfeel; the malt flavor it rather caramelly, with a toffee touch; strong bitterness, but the qualities of those two hops don’t shine enough; the final is even a bit metallic.
To be tuned.
