La Pirata Kia Tau

This New Zealand-influenced Triple IPA presents a powerful sensory Haka driven by high-intensity Southern Hemisphere hops. Vibrant aromas of crushed gooseberries, passionfruit, and zesty lime dominate the nose, supported by a clean, light bready malt backbone. On the palate, the experience is intensely fruity with layers of tropical guava and citrus, balanced by a surprisingly smooth bitterness that mimics a soft Pacific breeze despite its 9% strength. The high alcohol content is well-integrated, providing a gentle warmth that carries the hop-saturated finish. It is a bold, modern interpretation of an American IPA, defined by its lush, exotic hop profile and deceptively easy-drinking nature.
