Shape Shifter
A West Coast-style pale ale hopped with Chinook, Idaho 7 and Centennial on extra pale malt, oat malt and flaked wheat. The brewery describes it as bright, crisp and clean. Grapefruit, pine, resin and orange lead the nose, followed by tropical notes of mango and pineapple. A light grain base gives the palate a subtle softness, and the finish is dry and firm with balanced bitterness. Drinkers single out the piney flavours and a sharp citrus edge. First released in 2026.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Shape Shifter
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.
