Description
Both Kiwi Scott and Aussie Cam learnt how to make full flavoured beers as home brewers and then studied how to make these beers consistently at Versuchs und Lehranstalt fur Braurei (VLB) Berlin. Lured to Ireland by two Irish cailins and in search of good beer, they came up with an idea: let’s brew it ourselves!
In 2010 they established Eight Degrees Brewing at the foot of the Galtee Mountains and, after much work, stainless steel and (never ending!) research launched their first beer on an unexpecting world at the 2011 EasterFest.

Bottle. Brown pour, with a medium beige head. Aroma is malty, fruity, with some pine resins. Very hop forward, lots of pine cones, and pine resins with light citrus notes and a medium bitterness.

From tap at In De Wildeman, Amsterdam. Aroma of malt, caramel, mild tropical fruits, some pine resin, some nuttiness, hop, slightly herbal-ish. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Smooth and pleasant, easy malty IPA.

Bottle at home. Aroma is pale malt, fruity hops, zesty citrus, grapefruit, orange. Flavour is about medium bitter with a dry finish. Medium bodied. Nicely refreshing and citrus hoppy APA, seems a bit underrated.
