Description
To balance all this zesty hop character we use one of our favourite base malts, the Pale Ale Malt from the Malteurope Maltings at Marton in the Rangitikei and a dash of toffee tinged caramalt malt from the Bairds Maltings in Scotland. The result is a hoppy fruity yet well balanced pale ale that makes a perfect foil to a chilli oil laced pizza at Long Beach.
Tasting Notes:
Sweet lemon, lime, mandarin, herbal notes, and melon fruit aromas lead into a palate that balances zesty hops with toffee and biscuity malt flavours and a long dry finish.
