The Twisted Hop Enigma The Twisted Hop Christchurch, Canterbury
Beer style: Barley Wine / Wheat Wine / Rye Wine Ref: ratebeer.com Jun2024
Common descriptors are Deep copper in colour and a soft floral aroma with hints of cherries. Its sweet maltiness is balanced by the flavours of stone fruits and a robust hop bitterness. A period of maturation in American Oak contributes hints of vanilla and a tannic dryness. Flavours of dried fruits develop and Epiphany finishes long, dry and bitter. A great accompanyment to strong blue cheese.
Ediitor’s note: The beer was first called Epiphany, but was changed as another brewery on New Zealand already used that name.
