Liberty High Beam XPA
I went through a phase of XPA drinking, enjoying that they were big hoppy beers but light bodied and generally lower alcohol so good for a session. (Now I just prefer big bodied higher alcohol beers!)
From Liberty I'd expect no less than amazing hopping, which this guy definitely delivers. Big fruity hop loveliness and a decent bitterness with a fairly light body underneath and very little malt character coming through. True to style and yum, but as XPAs tend to do, it just felt a wee bit like it had been castrated. But it's still probably one of the better XPAs I've had.
ABV: 4.7%

Region: Auckland (Helensville)

Wife check: "Not really memorable, is it."
