Unique Aspect
Experimental hop HORT 4337 is the new amazing hop variety from New Zealand that gives punchy tropical and stonefruit characters. This, matched with two other great NZ hops gives the beer apricot and peach notes. The malt grist built on the Nebula grist with lots of oats, but also includes a spicy boost from a portion of buckwheat and a hint of toast from amber malt.
