Ale brewed with feijoas & aged in wine barrels. A beer that is developing cult like status in NZ and around the world due to its quality and scarcity. Feijoa is New Zealand’s second national fruit and this is surely a one of a kind beer! Be sure to savour the flavour.

Gold with a white head that flashes away to nothing. First glass is quite clear. Aroma of damp hay, apples, oak. Feijoas are there but don’t stick out too much and the sweet guavaish side of them is pretty restrained. Sourer and less funky than suggested by the aroma, with some bright fruit and hay. Astringent finish with a fair bit of oak, some spices. Alcohol is really hidden. Lots going on. Fine beer.
