Under the Southern Sky is a New England Style Double IPA of 8.1%, in which we only used New Zealand hops. For this beer we managed to get hold of a unique hop variety: Riwaka!

This (still) relatively unknown and hard to get variety has a character of passion fruit, citrus and grapefruit. We are happy to be able to work with this! The blend of Riwaka with Nelson Sauvin and Motueka makes this beer a real New Zealand special. In addition, we use Golden Promise malt and a good dose of oats, which contribute to the silky soft body.

Can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, mildly dry, a decent fine minerally crispness. Thinnish malts, a light sweetness, touch of grain. The NZ hops bring a light zippy tangerine - mandarin. Whisper of lime and a touch of sweet ripe tropical fruits. Crispy finish brings mild citric peel. A less grainy malt base would have seen this one shine more for me but the hop delivery is satisfying.

Hazy yellow, coarse white head that quickly collapses. Smell is pretty intensely juicy fruity; passion fruit, blood orange. Little bit of carbonation sharpness to keep it focused. Taste is nicely balanced bittersweet, rich marmelade, some dankness. Great.
