Bottled July 9, 2015 6.4% ABV
Purchased through Ales by Mail

Appearance (Look)
cloudy and pale; white, thick head

Smell
very little malt. tangerine

Taste
very little malt, lots of yeast, no hop bitterness, faint citrus, slightly tart, dry astringency. Doesn't have the depth and complexity I'd expect from the style. a "summer beer" like blue moon (I don't mean to be offensive to say that, but I don't mean it complimentarily either) taste starts but then stops abruptly

Mouthfeel (Feel)
astringent in the back, feels light/watery, carbonated.


Overall
not my favourite and not all that impressive. This is my first experience with this brewery (I live near them and would like them to succeed actually). I'm not familiar with this (and other NZ) hop so I was looking forward to it but maybe on top of a pale ale I'd be able to isolate it more. I generally like saisons so I'm not sure why I didn't like this exactly. There didn't seem to be a lot going on.
