DESCRIPTION

In a frosted glass, this New Zealand-style Pilsner glows like a South Island sunrise, its pale golden hue topped with a delicate, lacy head. Crafted with 100% Pilsner malt, it offers a crisp, clean base, reminiscent of freshly baked bread with a hint of honeyed sweetness. The star is the generous blend of New Zealand hops, led by Motueka, which bursts with vibrant lime zest and tropical mango flavours. This lively hop character delivers a refreshing bitterness, as invigorating as a breeze off the Tasman Sea. Best fermented with Bluestone’s Pilsen yeast, the beer remains pristine, allowing the hops to shine brightly, each sip a spirited journey to the heart of Aotearoa.
 
For those seeking an extra burst of Kiwi essence, a dry-hop addition of Riwaka intensifies the experience. The aroma erupts with bold grapefruit and passionfruit, conjuring images of a summer trek through Fiordland’s lush trails. The finish is crisp yet lingering, with a juicy, almost candied citrus kick that invites another sip.  This Pilsner is no ordinary lager; it’s a vibrant tribute to New Zealand’s rugged beauty, crafted for those who crave bold flavours and the untamed spirit of the land across the ditch.

Dry Hopping is not essential with this beer but if you’d like to experiment you could try 40g of Motueka or Riwaka in the fermenter 3 days before packaging.
