A pilsner with a refreshing and flavourful twist. Using a combination of Australian and New Zealand hops, the light golden body compliments the fruity crushed gooseberry and lime flavours coming from the Motueka, Nelson Sauvin and Ella hops. Perfect for Saigon’s hot climate and extended drinking sessions with friends.

Bottle split at CCV, thanks to John, Cotteridge Wines 08/06/19. Very light haze on a pale golden yellow pour with a decent just off white head. Nose is grass, pale malts, modest citric load. Taste comprises grass, lemon rind, herb, toasted malts, cereals. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent refreshing pils.

Cotts 2019. Standard for the style... at first wasn't sure why I wrote no noted and then realised why... 8 had nothing to add. Sweet Pilsener.

On tap at Heart of Darkness, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out light grass and clear biscuity malt. Flavour is similar, with light grass and crisp crackery malt. Clean and with a decent bite. Solid stuff.
