hopIQ found 10 beers with the same bitter and crisp character as Four Wives. A deep-gold pilsner hopped harder than most lagers at 35 IBU. Pale and Munich malts give a full, faintly honeyed base, while Czech Saaz, Dr Rudi and Motueka lay floral and herbal spice over it with a lime-like citrus lift from the New Zealand varieties. The bitterness builds slowly and holds well past the swallow. Crisp and firm rather than soft, and the most bitter lager in the range by some margin. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
