Hopside Down is packed with no less than five New Zealand hop varieties: Southern Cross, Kohatu, Motuere, Nelson Sauvin and Motueka. These give it its wonderfully juicy flavour, with notes of grapefruit, passion fruit, peach and pine. Hazy in appearance

0,44 boks fra Mossy Well sine kjøleskap, delt med Steven i hagen hans: uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Guava, høy, furunål, fersken og hint av kokte grønnsaker. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen.

Can at JDW Moon under Water, Norbury (26/03/2023) - Antipodean hoppy with notes of white grape, melon, some light subdued tropical fruity notes, malty backing, piney bitter hoppy finish. Ok but think I prefer ELB cask offerings.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Budgens of Islington. Pours hazy yellow with a billowing, foamy white head. Lightly sweet, pithy and lightly minerally, lemon peel, grapefruit. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Dry, pithy finish, more citrus peel. Not bad.
