330ml can pours out hazy golden topped with a sand head. Nose is nice sweet caramel malts some citrus hops and a little pine. Taste is more of the nice hop combo and a sweet caramel malt.

Cette Tuatara IPA est tout de même simple. Elle est cependant relativement efficace avec une amertume sympathique. Je n'aurais toutefois pas été complètement convaincu par la proposition aromatique. Le visuel est sur un blond orangé quasi limpide avec une effervescence moyennement soutenue et quasiment sans mousse. Le nez est sur la mandarine un peu sûre, l'orange, de légères herbes, le citron vert et la pêche. Il y a mieux à mon sens sans que cela soit mauvais.
