Peculiarities abound for this American-styled pale ale from New Zealand. Unexpected herbaceous mineral graining takes the lead, bringing rye, alfalfa, barnyard and straw wheat earthiness to dry hop-oiled fruiting. Indigenous Nelson Sauvin hops bring white-wined sour grape, gooseberry and kiwi illusions to musty lemon-seeded bittering. Soft orange peel, passion fruit and peach undertones add depth to honeyed green tea finish.
