So, I'm moving house and while packing, a piece of paper falls out of a book. It's a beer rating! No way! It's from NZ, I haven't been there for 3 years so here is a rating from the past.
Pint on tap at The Institution, Christchurch. It's a copper/red beer with a thin white head and high fine carbonation. Aroma of berries and pine. Flat mouthfeel, bitter taste with lots of pine resin. Earthy, bitter, nutty, finish with hints of perfume. Oh yeah, lots of pine. Piney and good.

Bottle sampled at Volstead. Clear light amber with small light beige head. Thick dank hops, blue cheese, sweaty socks, dry caramel, dry cara malt, strong marijuana, soft bready, thick dank cave grown hops? This is the definition of dank hops. Just medium sweet and bitter. Medium bodied with slick feel. Feel the dankness.
