There is a flavour intensity to our DDH Pales, this one hopped with hand-selected Rakau and Waimea, that we find affirming, yet also mellow and relaxing. A beer not confined by strength and good judgement to the shortest of measures, instead a beer for long and lingering pauses. One such pause during last year’s hop selection trip was the ferry from Picton — hours along the Marlborough Sounds, and across Cook Strait.

Can at home. Super cloudy yellow-ish to dull orange with small white head. Dank weedy hops, star fruit, soft white grapes, Granny Smith apples, kiwi. Lots of NZ style hop goodness here! Under medium sweet and over medium bitter. Almost medium bodied. Lovely.
