At Moonwake we love to add a modern twist to classic European styles. For this beer, we paired traditional noble hop, Hallertau Mittlefruh, with New Zealand hop, Wai Iti.

Our recipe was created as a collaboration with one of our favourite Edinburgh restaurants, Down The Hatch. Hit them up for some of the best poutine outside of Canada.

Sample thanks to Grumbo! Pours a deep gold. Grainy malt with an NZ fruity touch, citrus, nettles, medium bodied, with a light bitter close. Not bad.
