Flavours are tropical and citrusy, with pineapple, papaya, sweet cake, herbs, grapefruit and some lime.
Juicy mouthfeel, medium bitterness and sweetness in a nice balance. Good use of the hops involved, the Motueka brings that mojito lime character, but it’s pretty subtle and blends in well. 4 out of 5.
