What Our Editors Thought
The nose captures familiar light-bready pils malt with subtle spicy hops notes behind it. In the sip, it’s clean and direct, with punchy hops character that remains tuned to malt balance. Restrained and sophisticated.
What Our Panel Thought
Surprisingly Noble-like aroma, plus lime rind and pith. Nicely balanced flavor. Malt sweetness plays well with funky hops—an intermingling of citrus, tropical fruit, and grassy notes. Dry finish, lingering bitterness. The more I drink, the more it really grows on me.
What the Brewers Say
German pils malt and Motueka hops. Clean, somewhat bitter, with just a hint of New Zealand fruitiness.
