Reach dizzying heights at the peak of Aoraki with this fruity mix of fresh and juicy New Zealand hops. Four hop varieties added at various stages throughout the brew make this a DIPA to be reckoned with.
Full to the brim with flavours of tropical and stone fruits and a soft biterness on the finish. Crack open this can and celebrate the success at the peak of your day.

Cans from Tesco and Asda. Milky golden body with an off-white head that slowly fades. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of peach, flower stems, white candy sticks and custard creams. Flavour of nectarine, brioche and soft malt. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A tasty DIPA with lovely โgreenโ New Zealand hop notes. A slight criticism - itโs a touch sweet and I think itโd be ever better with a few more bittering hops in the boil.

Can from Tesco Inverurie. It pours cloudy pale almost - greenish gold with a thick, fluffy white. The aroma is sweet, juicy, tangy, green fruit action, kiwi fruit, white grape, melon, pineapple, tangy citrus, lime, grapefruit, candied peel and weedy vibes. The taste is fairly crisp, firmly dry, green, weedy, floury bread, then gets smoother, kiwi fruit, lime, Grapefruit, gooseberry, melon, pineapple, touch of spice and some gummy candy which dries out slightly through the finish. Medium body and fine to moderate carbonation. Very nice stuff, especially for a supermarket beer.

440ml can, May 2022 rebrew (down to 3 hops now - what shame Nelson removed!). Murky pale yellow, white head. Aroma of ripe mango, melon, zesty citrus. Taste is quite sweet, ripe mango, melon, papaya, slightly vinous grape, papaya, very low bitterness. Medium bodied. Fantastic for a supermarket DIPA.
