“Dry Hops: Freestyle Motueka & Southern Cross, Mosaic”. Wow. Not so much “wow” for the flavour profile, which, don’t get me wrong, is excellent, but doesn’t quite blow my hair back in legendary fashion, but “wow” because it’s so very smooth and well-behaved for its no-nonsense gravity. A seriously dangerous pillowy smooth wrecking ball with only the mildest warming to warn you that you might find yourself in trouble fairly quickly. (17/20)
This will be my 6,370th unique Untappd check-in.
