New Zealand Pale Ale 12
A top-fermented pale ale at 12.5° Stammwürze, brewed from Pale Ale malt only and hopped with the New Zealand varieties Nelson Sauvin and Motueka. The hops give the beer a fresh aroma, and at its degree the brewery calls it exceptionally drinkable. It is unfiltered and unpasteurised. The first batch after the restart was brewed there on 1 March 2017.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for New Zealand Pale Ale 12
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
