15 Doors - DDH Motueka
BKS Artisan Ales

Pours a completely opaque pale orange with two fingers of white foam. Aroma is peach, red berry, dank, and faint resiny hops in a whirlwind of notes. It has a really sweet, plump start that tapers off quickly to reveal bold, resinous hops. It's big and bold. A little green note adds some burn underneath. Flavor profile is peach, apricot, and tangerine with heavy tropical fruits underneath. Some red berry and faint resin pops through, but the focus is more on sweet, fleshy fruits than the nose. Mouth feel is plush and creamy with a medium-thick consistency. Overall, the hop notes here are great, developing some nuance, and distinction from the usual tropical fruit smoothie.

Served in a 15.5oz Spiegelau tulip from a 16oz can.
