Flying Fortress Ale symbolises everything great about beer: a big taste, a graceful aroma and two massive engines on each wing. The malts are Pale Ale combined with chocolate and caramel variants while the hops are NZ Motueka and Pacific Jade. Ardmore Airport, just 5km from the brewery, was originally built for these beautiful behemoths. Adjust your helmet and strap yourself in.

33cl bottle at a restaurant in Auckland. A light chestnut colour with a thin white head; piney aroma; big resinous hoppy taste with a firm malty body; this is a beer that doesn't take prisoners.

Dark amber, med head. Earthy aroma w a hint of apple fruitiness. Earthy, slightly caramelly character. Well-balanced.

Bottled. A brown beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, citrusy hops, leading to a bitter finish.
