Commercial Description:
The Moa Brewing Company was established in 2003 by Josh Scott with a focus on brewing premium, boutique beers to an ever discerning beer market. Moa's key point of difference is in its brewing technique. Bottled fermented and conditioned to give a natural, more consistent carbonation and flavour. The beer is left to lie on it's lees until deemed ready to be 'disgorged', a process that involves removing most of the lees from the bottle resulting in a clean, bright beer, right to the very last drop. Hence Methode Traditionelle. Most enjoyable with food or chilled on it's own.

(Bottle 37,5 cl) Hazy, golden with a rough, off-white head. Aroma of malt, flowery hops and a little yeast. Medium body with a very soid malt base, a heavy carbonation with huge bubbles and a little yeast. Very flowery hopping that also leaves a distinct bitterness. Huge yeast sediment. Exciting. 050208

Bottle. Having had a bottle that seemed to have been spoilt at the Sydney Gathering, i bought another one to try. This was quite nice. Smooth, with an almost creamy mouthfeel, with spritzy carbonation. Some kiwi fruit and passionfruit. NIce clean, crisp mouthfeel. Tasty stuff.

Poured a slightly hazed light yellow color and a white head. The aroma is malty and lightly sweet. The flavor is sweeter, malty and had a light bitter finish.

On tap. Pale golden beer, cloudy with a thick fluffy head. Sweet honeyish malt aroma and a bit of floral/spicy hops as well. Flavour is quite sweet. Creamy texture. Light hoppy finish.

Overly fizzy. Dry and grassy-herbal. It’s almost got some peppery flavors. About US$6.
