Hop Federation’s limited release, Server Not Found XPA, is back by popular demand and for good reason.
This XPA is crisp, super clean and well-balanced with bold hop aromas from the combination of Riwaka, Moutere and Waimea hops packed into it.
Chief Brewer, Simon Nicholas, says “At 4.7% ABV, our new XPA is on the lighter side for craft beers, making it the perfect beer to enjoy while switching off the phone and chilling out in the sunshine with mates.”
He adds, “The XPA (Extra Pale Ale) style sits between an APA and IPA, with a light malt base that allows the hop flavours to stand out. It’s a style with broad appeal, from beer connoisseurs to those looking to get into the world of craft beer. This is a brew we’re super proud of.”
After selling out fast the first time around, it’s now available to order again in 50L kegs or 440ml cans. For details on pricing and ordering information, contact brews@hopfederation or visit hopfederation.co.nz.
