A pale ale to showcase the amazing Motueka lot we selected from our supplier, Hop Revolution.
Backed up by some Citra and Nelson Sauvin, this pale is full of creamy limes with some lemon and white grape for good measure!

Can shared thanks to Alexander. Hazy deep golden, nice white head. Oats, very dank weedy hops, spicy grapes, gooseberries, dry lime zest. Under medium sweet and bitter. Under medium bodied, bit dry finish.

Hazy APA by one of England's top breweries in the genre, the now famous Verdant in Cornwall, canned exactly - accurate to the day - two months ago. Showcases the New Zealand hop variety Motueka, derived from Saaz in 1996 and since then a household name within that lovely bunch of exotic 'Pacific' hop varieties. Irregular, 'Brugse kant'-like, thin but delicately structured, off-white head, edge-retaining over a cloudy to milky ochre-blonde robe with beige-ish hue. Aroma of lime zest and lime juice (typical for Motueka indeed), green peppercorns, unripe guava, toasted garlic, carambola and pepino - but no exuberant 'tropicality', raw black radish, dry biscuit, pine resin, bread pulp, wet sand, dried out moss but also dank 'diesel'. Spritzy, dryish onset, minerally carb (quite 'developed' for the style actually), green guava and unripe peach notes, bit powdery, with rounded, dryish mouthfeel; dry-biscuity pale malt core, soggy cereals, soaked in the Motueka effect though perhaps not as brightly 'mojito'-coloured as it sometimes is, even though the lime-zestiness is surely there and even some fragrant herbaceousness (not in a minty way though - more spring-oniony). Nicely bittering finish - with a very late sweet touch of malts popping up suddenly and then fading again - with a kind of 'dark moss green' character, less exuberant than the countless 'tropical' and citrusy IPAs and APAs from this renowned producer, yet still dank, zesty and spicy. Not Verdant's brightest star, perhaps, but a very decently made one for sure, in which this brewery's craftmanship can easily be felt.

Kurzrezension vom Vienna Kraft Bier Fest:
Optisch milchig gelb-ocker. Der Duft wirkt frisch und grasig hanfig "grün". Der Antrunk kommt frisch, grasis-grün, behält aber seinen stiltypischen saftigen Charakter. Der Körper hat eine schöne Fülle und ist dabei feinrezent, zeigt eine geschmeidige bis cremige Textur und eine zarte Trockenheit. Geschmacklich und aromatisch bleibt es frisch, grasig, hanfig, leicht herb, aber auch etwas hopfenscharf.

Can. Aroma is citrus fruit and tropical fruit, hops. Especially lime and passion fruit, guava. Medium body. Flavour is malty, low to medium sweetness, loads of hops, juicy. Lots of citrus fruit and creamy, with lime, grapefruit, mango, guava, passion fruit. Some grape. Lots of pine, with a dry bittersweet finish. Lovely hazy pale, showcasing motueka in a great way and super tasty at a rather low abv.
