The wait is over 🥁

NZ fresh hop ipa Cloud Sipper (5.4%) from rolls in with bright waves of grapefruit peel, lime zest, and that vivid just-picked green edge.

The haze is plush and glowing, lifting soft citrus and a touch of resin without ever weighing things down and leaving a lingering echo that feels like the start of something, not the end.

On tap today 💚
