Common descriptors are
This freshly hopped Harvest Pilsner has won five medals (the last three have been gold) in five consecutive years at the Brewers Guild of New Zealand International Beer Awards and is eagerly awaited by craft beer lovers every year. This year we have used two freshly picked hops, Motueka and Nelson Sauvin, harvested at Kentishman Hop Farm in Upper Moutere, a stone’s throw away from the Brewery. As well as the distinctive hop bouquet gained from using fresh hops, Motueka gives passion fruit and tropical notes and Nelson Sauvin bold citrus aromas. With a crisp and dry Pilsner finish this triple gold medal winning beer is one to savour now before it’s all gone.
