Beer and ballet – an unusual Pas de Deux. Brewed by Garage Project for the Royal New Zealand Ballet, Hops on Pointe teases the boundaries between high and low culture.

Brewed with premium German malts, Nelson Sauvin hops and finished with a champagne yeast, the result is a pale gold lager with a crisp, clean palate, rich tropical fruit aromas and tight champagne bubbles.

Available at all good barres.

TASTING NOTES

Grapefruit, gooseberry, and a touch of cat pee – for the Sav lovers. This effervescent beauty has a gorgeous soft mouthfeel and a confusing identity that bridges wine and beer. Great for food pairing with cured meats and creamy cheese, and converting non-beer drinkers.
