Manuka Sahti
A ‘sahti’ is a Finnish-style, tree-flavoured farm ale, traditionally made with juniper boughs. Our Mānuka Sahti is a New Zealand version of a sahti, made using mānuka leaf added at the boil. The flavours are subtle, refreshing and satisfying. Floral notes of orange blossom come from the mānuka, and a juicy mouth-feel from the use of rye malt. The clean finish makes this a great beer to serve with rich and savoury dishes.
