Pint on-draught @ Taproom Eatery and Craft Bar, Invercargill, New Zealand. $10 NZD per pint.

5% ABV.

Amber malt (or some specialty malt richer and darker than pale malt/2-row), pale malt. Floral hop flavour. Faint peach.

Balanced albeit simple and a bit shallow hopwise, lacking the pungency and oomph one would hope for in an IPA...this drinks more like a pale ale in terms of hop intensity. Lacks much concomitant hop bitterness.

Medium-bodied. Well carbonated. Smooth.

A drinkable likable brew from a nascent brewery, but it needs more distinctive registration of flavour from its hop varietals.

C+ / ABOVE AVERAGE
