The Weka isn't a bird that will ever make big trips given it's flightless. Slightly deeper golden coloured with a steady hoppy pale ale aroma and taste at sessionable levels. A little bit of golden style in here too.

6/8/2025. Keg at GBBF 2025. Citrus, pomelo, husky fruit aroma. Quite sweet with moderate bitterness. Moderate body and a very prickly carbonation. Okay but too fizzy even for keg.
