A sour ipa brewed in collaboration with New Zealand Hop Growers 'Hop Revolution'. This sour IPA aims to showcase New Zealand’s most flavoursome hops. The Nelson Sauvin and Motueka hops are the stars of this beer, providing notes of gooseberry and white wine. These aromas are paired with a layered sourness to produce a fruit-led, gooseberry, lime, chardonnay nose & flavour.

440ml can Sophie's Beer Store. Hazed yellow appearance, white froth atop. Aroma of NZ hops, which I find work wonders in sour IPAs. More Motueka than Nelson Sauvin here but both contributing nicely alongside additional grapefruit and lemon zest. Gently sour, softly sweet, decent overall.

Can. Pours cloudy straw with airy white head. Clear, rough aroma of yeast, with hoppy notes and touches of malt. Intensely dry and citric flavour with estery notes and touches of dust. Rough and estery aftertaste with dry and citric notes. Well-balanced, rough, refreshing and really nice.

Can, 6.0%. Mild hop aroma, Nelson Sauvin or Sorachi Ace? Cloudy golden colour. Small white head. The flavour is nicely citric and quenching. The hops are less pronounced in the flavour than the aroma. But nicely citric. Mildly lemony. Very refreshing.

A hazed golden orange coloured pour with a a small white head. Aroma is pithy lemon passion fruit, nz hop, grape, dry wheat tangy. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, earthy grains, wheat, pithy citrus, lemon, pissy nz hop, juicy breakfast orange. Palate is semi sweet, tangy, highish carbonation. Decent.
