Why Kick A Moo Cow
Why Kick A Moo Cow is a hoppy pale ale brewed exclusively with New Zealand varieties: Nelson Sauvin, Rakau and Motueka. Retailers speak of a pronounced tropical character, and tasters describe it as juicy, very fruity and easy to drink, with a soft, smooth body. The hops suggest gooseberry and white grape, apricot and lime. A light malt sweetness sits underneath, the bitterness is moderate, and the finish stays fruity. The beer has been made since 2013.
