G.O.A.T.
First brewed in 2018 as the brewery's first hazy IPA, specifically for entry at the national beer awards, and now its most widely distributed beer. It pours opaque and golden. The nose is led by ripe mango and passionfruit, with orange and stone fruit behind, and a light pineapple-like bitterness closes the palate. Oats and wheat in the grist give a soft, rounded body with little sharpness. Hops include Mosaic, El Dorado, Amarillo, Citra, Ella and Riwaka.
