Extra Tall Kiwi

Draft at the Beer Temple, Amsterdam. Poured a hazy yellow golden colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is malt, dank grassy hops. The flavour is grainy malt, big wet green hops, light juicy pineapple citrus, dry hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Passion fruit, green mango and lemon. Murky yellow pour with decent head. Some caramel in the finish, a little green onion. Tap at Dominion.

Canned 2/29/24 drunk 3/27/24. Heavily hazy, white-gold-bronze. Small, creamy, white head, steadily recedes to flimsy cover. Soft, chalky, yet also spicy NZ hops in the nose with tons of mineral and guava-like character. Delicate, honey-like malts deepen the juiciness and there's lingering tropical fruit and spice for days. Clean, no booze/resin. Soft, super soft actually, with massive maltiness providing rich, deep, honey and white bread-like character. There's lovely juice including peach, papaya, guava and pear with good spice and white wine, but it's just a bit lacking in bitterness (there's almost none). Given the higher sweetness of the malt, it's somewhat of a problem. But killer hop flavors, for sure.

Can from Philly: pours hazy light orange. Large mango, passionfruit, buttered popcorn. Riwaka is kept in check by the other hops. Taste is sweet, with barely any bitterness. Creamy and smooth body.
