Beneath the surface of this crisp, golden pilsner lies a tectonic shift in tradition. Brewed with peninsula grown malt and massive hop energy from New Zealand's finest - Nelson Sauvin and Rakau - this lager delivers waves of bright citrus, white grape, and stone fruit aromatics.

Dullish gold. Medium head, but it died fairly quickly. Medium bitterness, some cheesy saazy stuff in there, which is a problem because it's Nelson and Rakau. This must be a museum piece. Malts are okay, the bitterness isn't bad. Wish I'd have found this one a bit fresher.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 2025-04-07). Clear gold with white head. Malty grain character with mild grassy tropical hops and a slight resin finish. A bit odd, not a whole lot of NZ character and the malt is quite grainy. Average.
