440ml can. Murky yellow, white head. Aroma peaches, passionfruit, grapefruit. Taste is sweet and juicy, peach, passionfruit, grapefruit and lime, Nelson is subdued, low bitterness. Medium bodied. A fantastic NEIPA but that Kohia is powerful stuff, it changes Nelson so much.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, a good fine minerally crispness. Somewhat fluffy pale malts, a tad thin, a decent creamy sweetness. The Kiwi hop trio start with soft pine and a light but clear skunk. Peacharine floral candy peach and nectarine emerge, nicely juicy, and dominate a light but pleasant key lime Motueka streak. Hard to discern any NS but, it may be delivering the skunk. Finishes airy and crisp with a very light pinch of hop spice. A pleasant affair indeed.
