Brew Union Swamp Juice V

As far as I'm aware the only brewery in Palmerston, and a microbrewery at that, serving their beers only by tap, these guys make a fairly bold NEIPA/Hazy that looks much like it's name - swamp juice, but tastes deliciously hoppy with no bitterness at all and a light almost lemonadey finish. 

Deliciously big hop whoof on the nose with all sorts of fruity aromas (big US hops: Amarillo, Simcoe and Citra), a nice juiciness while still feeling much lighter in body than it looks, and no hint of vegetation bitterness that some of the NEIPAs seem to carry. Win! (Caution - it also goes down a lot easier than most almost 7% ABV beers)
