🌍 New Zealand · Peated Wheat Ale · One of 1 Peated Wheat Ales in hopIQ

Yeastie Boys' most famous experiment — a wheat beer brewed with heavily peated Scottish whisky malt. The result is unlike anything else: smoky, complex and deeply unusual. Rex Attitude is not for everyone, which is exactly the point.
