And then another one... Fresh off the back of Rhapsody XPA, Nowhereman return with their biggest beer yet, the Fresh AF Double IPA. Whether intentional or not, it's a beer adds credence to a growing local movement towards DIPAs with lighter malt profiles; an Australian DIPA style, perhaps?
Exclusively using Joe White's new Signature malt - a high end, single region origin Australian barley you can read about here - as a base, Cascade, Centennial, Amarillo, Chinook and Eureka hops are then employed to create a modern interpretation of a classic style.
While there is a slightly viscous body, Fresh AF isn’t sweet; instead pine, orange and grapefruit provide a firm bitterness and balance to a highly drinkable beer that'll get the party started like pop drops from the Golden Age of So Fresh, the era that inspired the beer's accompanying artwork.
