Super tasty and super sessionable! We've dropped a tonne of fresh Citra and Mosaic hops late in the kettle. Then more of both these supercharged green flavour monsters in for a late dry hop..... For a 3.8 percenter, this is one hell of a session beer!

DRINKING NOTES:

If you like Citra and Mosaic, you'll love this beer. Refreshing and fruity with a slight bitterness. It's an easy drinking session beer, but has the satisfying hop hit of a much stronger ale.

THE CAN ART:

This is the new incarnation of this can. Our guardian is the protector of nature itself. He signifies strength, power and leadership which represent the strength of the hops in the beer. Sitting under an autumnal sky, and presiding over all the seasons. This guys is not to be messed with. He's a bit more menacing than our previous guardian.... We saw this image as a sketch by Max Rock and just knew we needed to put him on a can.
