What the brewers say

“Double IPA brewed with Moutere and Kohatu.”

What our panel thought

“Berry-forward notes of strawberry and blackberry in the aroma, accentuated by subtle tropical hints of pineapple and coconut. The tropical and berry-forward flavor quickly fades into a drying bitterness that strips away those inviting nuances. Bitterness lingers long into the dry, borderline-astringent finish.”

What our editors thought

“Red-wine grape on the nose, bold and pronounced. In the flavor, there are sweet grape layers under more strident top-notes. Restrained and defined, with a red-grape boldness.”
