Beer - #459 - Stewart Brewing - Top of the Hops

The name appealed to me, as did the ingredients list, so I got me a beer from Stewart Brewing  called Top of the Hops.

New to me then, Stewart Brewing Company, who do their brew at Tuatara Brewing Company this one is in the Style of  Pilsener,  and they are in Hiwinui, Manawatu, New Zealand.

6.2% ABV, 34 IBU things, 186 calories a serve, and 2.3 standard drink units in this bottle that is 500ml (16fl Oz give or take)

This lively pilsner is brewed using New Zealand’s finest hop stars – Nelson Sauvin, Cascade and Wakatu.

Labelled by the crowds as ‘Bittersweet’, the German style bitterness is evenly balanced by the sweetness of the pilsner malt.

It’s fast being recognised as a chart topping brew and why we call it our Top of the Hops.

The Nelson Sauvin appeals to me too,
