What Our Editors Thought

“Pale hazy body. Aroma captures the striking note of fresh hops just pulled from the bine with lemon, tangerine, a bit of zucchini, tropical floral, some red currant, and an overwhelming freshness. Zippy in the flavor with a peppery, pithy tropical bitterness, medium carbonation, and just enough body to support the hops. As drinkable as hazy pale ale gets while delivering gorgeously expressive hops.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Bright, spicy, tropical nose followed by a mouthwatering orange-pineapple juice and coconut flavor. Very distinctive hop character. Soft malt body with a lingering chewiness. Mouthfeel leaves a soft, great-tasting celebration of hops and a longing for another gulp.”

What the Brewers Say

“Bright, expressive hazy pale ale that highlights the best of New Zealand hops with layers of sauvignon blanc grape must, sweet sensimilla, and dank strawberries. Crisp with a smooth finish.”
