TAPU is a vibrant and elegant New Zealand Pilsner that showcases the unique terroir of Southern Hemisphere hops. The sensory experience is defined by the expressive use of Motueka and Nelson Sauvin, which provide an aromatic explosion of crushed gooseberry, white wine grapes, and bright lime zest. A foundation of bready and crackery malt provides necessary support without overshadowing the hop-forward character. On the palate, it delivers a clean, smooth bitterness and tropical fruit notes that lead into a crisp, dry finish. This beer epitomizes high drinkability, balancing complex fruit-forward hop layers with a refreshing, light-bodied structure and brilliant clarity.
Appearance.Straw to pale gold (3-4 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a persistent, creamy white head that leaves delicate lacing on the glass.
Aroma.High hop intensity featuring prominent notes of gooseberry, white grape, and passion fruit from Nelson Sauvin, accented by Motueka’s distinct lime and light grassy character. Supporting malt is medium-low, offering a neutral, bready, and crackery quality. Fermentation is exceptionally clean with no detectable esters or sulfur.
Taste.Initial impression is hop-forward with flavors of tropical fruit, lime, and a hint of melon. Medium-high hop bitterness is clean and firm, extending into a dry finish. The malt flavor is medium-low, providing a grainy-sweet, bready backbone that balances the hop bitterness. The aftertaste is clean with lingering notes of citrus and white wine.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with a smooth, soft texture. Carbonation is medium-high, lending a refreshing and crisp mouthfeel. No alcohol warmth or astringency is present.
