4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
Outstanding IPA. So often a brewer badges a pale as an IPA. Not very often that a brewer badges a DIPA as one. This is one of those occasions. This is one of my favourite treats!

UPDATED: MAY 5, 2013 I really liked this beer. It was really well balanced and had a beautiful hoppy nose and body. Easy drinking and enjoyable. Needed to have a bigger and thicker body to it though.

Amber. Thin head. Earthy aroma has pine, citrus, palate is the same, but with a fair bit of crystal malt. Good balance, though.

Beautiful aroma, very punchy orange citrus passionfruit aromas, and guess what, that’s just how it tastes too. I think this is comparable to the famous Tuatara Aoteroa Pale Ale for tropical flavours but with more weight and bitterness, maybe a little too hop-intensive even for me. However the aroma is beautiful. I paid $11 (NZD) for a 500ml bottle of this today at regional wines, some of the more fashionable beers of much less ABV are more expensive. I think this is a very good buy for an IIPA.

Color arancio torbido, al naso è intrigante con intense note luppolate e fruttate (agrumi e frutti tropicali). Al palato è un trionfo di luppolo con lievi tonalità maltate e di biscotto. Il finale è un intenso amaro entusiasmante. Non credo che riuscirò a berla di nuovo visto che proviene dalla Nuova Zelanda ed era in edizione limitata. Sono un privilegiato...
