What Our Editors Thought

“Deep wet slate in the aroma with touches of mango, coriander, tamarind, and passion fruit. Mineral bass notes in the sip sustain the fruity middle and herbal high frequency.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Sweaty and dank aromatics of pine, onion, and cheese complement a hint of diesel for an inviting nose. A flash of clean malt sweetness sets the stage for waves of bitterness. Flavors of orange marmalade, pine resin, lemon, cedar, and onion blend and create a balanced, lingering bitterness. Dry finish.”

What the Brewers Say

“With Riwaka, Mosaic, Wakatu.”
