The Hold The Line NZIPA is a bold and aromatic New Zealand India Pale Ale (NZIPA) that embodies the essence of New Zealand’s hops. Brewed by Hop Federation, this IPA offers a unique tropical profile, driven by a blend of Southern Cross, Taiheke, and Nectaron hops. With its crisp, hoppy finish and vibrant fruit character, it's a standout beer for IPA lovers.

Brewing Process:
This NZIPA is crafted using a combination of premium New Zealand hops, including Southern Cross, Taiheke, and Nectaron. These hops contribute layers of tropical fruit, citrus, and floral notes. The beer is brewed with a focus on hop-forward flavour, balancing bitterness with smooth drinkability.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: A hazy golden color with a foamy white head that lingers.

• Aroma: The nose is bursting with tropical fruit aromas, featuring hints of pineapple, passionfruit, and a touch of citrus zest.

• Taste: The palate is vibrant and juicy, with the tropical fruit flavours carrying through. A subtle malt backbone supports the hop profile, and the beer finishes with a clean, dry bitterness.

• Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied with moderate carbonation, delivering a smooth and crisp texture.

Food Pairing:
This IPA pairs wonderfully with classic pub fare such as fish and chips, burgers, or fried chicken. It’s also a great match for spicy dishes like Thai curry or Mexican tacos, where the beer’s bitterness helps balance bold flavours.
