The Mill Brewery Southern Lights

Back in April, The Mill Brewery explored some of the northern hemisphere's favourite hops with Northern Lights and for Spring 2022, they’ve looked to the skies a little closer to home. Southern Lights is an NZ IPA brewed with Nelson Sauvin and Nectaron, alongside some additional Idaho 7 and Citra Cryo from the US.

It’s quite a modern IPA too and borrows from both the West Coast and juicy camps with a combined wealth brought by a soft and lush mouthfeel and a decent bitterness. The hops meanwhile provide a fresh array of gooseberry, pawpaw, rich passionfruit and grapefruit with some light touches freshly cut grass.
