As a tribute to The Land of the Long White Cloud, Beerland have created a NZ IPA that's sure to take your tastebuds on a holiday. Pretty Majestical – a nod to Hunt For The Wilderpeople – has been brewed with an all-Kiwi hop lineup including, Wakatu, Rakau, Kohatu and the classic Nelson Sauvin, and a simple malt bill with just a touch of Carapils for colour and sweetness.
Juicy hop characters flow from the glass with tropical fruit, lime and gooseberry leading the charge. The pine comes through with a restrained bitterness and the finish is dry. This is very much a "juicy" NZ IPA which takes the piney/resinous flavours of a West Coast IPA and blends them with the characteristics of an East Coast. Best of all it showcases plenty of the delightful flavours NZ hops have to offer.
Hunt For The Wilderpeople? How about hunt for the hops, bro?
