A beer brewed with our friends at Fast Fashion & Freestyle Hops, from a shared passion for New Zealand hops. Double dry hopped with Nelson, Riwaka and Nectaron onto a modern west coast base delivers an oily, slick resinous mouthfeel, moderate bitterness, and a powerful expression of grapefruit, mandarin, white grape and peach.

6th August 2025
Panda thanks to Cloin. Bright clear gold beer, a tidy thin off white head disappears quicker than a politicians promise. Light palate, semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Thin bodied pale malts, a decent sweetness, touch of grain. Surprisingly ripe lemon hops, very ripe. Cooling pine. Some Riwaka exotics on the back end. Airy semi dry finish brings a very mild hop spice nip and a mild but notable ripe citrus bitterness. Decent but not quite firing on all cylinders for a Track brew.

440ml can. Clear golden, thin white head. Aroma is quite vinous and dank. Taste of white wine, grapes, gooseberry, some peach, lots of piney resin, and a good bitter finish. Medium bodied. Quality westie. Didn't get the Riwaka in this one, but I don't mind that.

Keg at St Albans beer shop, St Albans, Herts. A golden coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Hoppy, citrus, grapefruit, pine, tropical fruit taste. The aroma is more or less along the same lines. Really drinkable clean tasting westie. Not usually a massive fan of westies but this was really good.
