Built for any mission, Pickup’s a juicy, hop-loaded hazer fanging notes of pineapple, papaya and citrus with a bitter kick to finish. Panhead Pickup is just as at home being entered into a Craft Beer Award as it is getting thrown in the tray with some fishing gear, tent and a BBQ to escape with some mates.
A tropical Hazy IPA with great mouthfeel and balanced bitter finish, this pickup is loaded with notes of papaya, nectarines, citrus and melon, with some bitterness in the backend for a full and balanced ride.
With a pickup you can say yes to it all – the call of the wild, a working bee, bike mish or tip trip. Anywhere, any time, all weather, all terrain. Don’t overthink it. Just grab your gear and go.
Tasting notes: Grapefruit, lime-zest, melon and pineapple are all present in the aroma. The flavour is tropical and a real fruit salad with a citrusy-zing. Smooth and full bodied, without being sweet and is rounded out nicely by a distinct juicy bitterness.
Key ingredients: Mosaic, Cascade, Motueka & Eclipse hops
