Manuka Dark

Описание

Manuka has been the inspiration for some great Kiwi beers. Mussel Inn’s Captain Cooker, brewed with fresh Manuka tips must be one of the great New Zealand beers. If you’ve not tried it then get off the computer and get yourself to Golden Bay and order a glass straight from the source, this instant.Here’s our take on what might be considered a truly New Zealand style. Here we hot smoked pale malt over manuka chips, mashed the freshly smoked grains with caramel, chocolate and black malts and fermented them with Edinburgh ale yeast to create a dark, smokey interpretation of a Scottish 80/- (Shilling). Smoke, rather than hop bitterness balances the malt to create a savoury, sweet contrast you don’t often come across in modern beer styles. Smokey enough, without being overwhelming. Sweet enough, without being clawing. It’s definitely not your usual beer.
