Crisp and refreshing, THE DAMNED has been crafted with all NZ hops – Riwaka and Motueka hops highlight the profile. Classic Pilsner character with a distinct modern hoppy twist and big citrus all around. THE DAMNED pours with a spectacular head.

Il et toujours compliqué d'être dithyrambique sur une pils et cette The Damned ne fait pas exception à la règle. Une petite acidité vient toutefois lui donner une léger pep's, et la complexité est acceptable (pour le genre bien entendu). Au global, nous sommes donc sur une pils très acceptable et une des meilleures que j'ai pu tester (même si mon expérience en la matière est faible, ne trouvant pas le style très intéressant). Le visuel est sur un blond légèrement voilé avec une fine effervescence et une mousse blanche crémeuse d'1 cm. Le nez est sur un mélange de céréales, de citron (légère acidité) et de zest d'orange. En bouche on retrouve cette légère acidité qui vient réhausser la pils et la dynamiser de façon intelligente. Côté arômes, rien d'extraordinaire toutefois. De légères épices apparaissent toutefois avec des variations intéressantes pour le style. L’arrière-bouche est cependant un peu trop acide. Corpulence et longueur restent modérées pour une pils plus intéressante que des basiques, mais qui n'a pas non plus réussi à m'enflammer.

Tap at Sun Moth, Melbourne. Poured a clear straw colour with a frothy white head and lots of bubbles. The aroma is malt, dry light citrus hop. The flavour is moderate to light bitter with a light, watery grainy malt, light dry citrus hop bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average to lively carbonation.

330ml bottle into shaker. Certainly pours with a spectacular head! Nose of peppery hops. Cloudy amber with aforementioned giant foamy white head. Clean, fresh and bitter taste. Finish of bitter peppery hops. Nice easy drinking Pils.

Pours yellow with a small head.Nose shows biscuity and bready malt as well as big spicy, earthy hop notes.Flavours include more spicy and earthy hops along with grainy and bready malt. A bit of a non-deScript sweetness rolls through later unfortunately. Overall pretty good though.

Bottle. Clear pale gold with a large white head that fades but never quite disappears. 3+ Aroma of gooseberries, pink grapefruit, grass. Clean sweet hayish and slightly toasty pale malt, lots of Kiwi hops, firm bitterness. Would have loved just a little pepper along with the fruity hops. Not quite as dry at the end as some of the NZ examples, but perhaps this is good.
