A beer created by fishing guru Matt Watson dives straight into controversy. Duncan's go vegan with new smoothie sour. Red barley beer "better for you". Spent grain turned into "leather"
On the rarity of wheat beers, I enjoyed the Heyday Sunsation witbier at Punky Brewster's last week. Noticeable, but pleasant and certainly not excessive, lemon flavour (Pacific Jade??)
My German mate thought it wasn't carbonated enough, but he thinks everything needs to be at 3+ volumes.
I think Heyday make some great beers, a Dunkel from them earlier this year was outstanding. You might be right about some carbonation levels in NZ beer, Style-wise, 3-4 is probably right ... they do need be effervescent!
