Moon Dog Dry Hopped Sour Ale Lagoona Matata

TASTING NOTES

Sour yet satisfying. Lagoona Matata has a gentle tartness that makes it seriously moreish. It’s as tasty as it is good-looking and filled with all the tropical beachy summer-y vibes you want from a sour ale! It is dry-hopped with Citra and Mosaic hops that gives it tropical bursts of mango, passion fruit, lychee and pineapple. It’s crystal clear and light gold in appearance and is as attractive as it delicious!

BREWERY SNAPSHOT

Two violin-playing brothers and their marvelously monikered mate have set out to create beers that meld styles, use all manner of unusual ingredients and frequently get to see the inside of barrels before being unleashed. In keeping with their unique ethos, Josh and Jake Uljans and Karl van Buuren have also situated their microbrewery in a spot equidistant between Carlton United Breweries headquarters and the Duchess brothel. What’s more, they’ve put it together from parts that include those used for seaweed-based cosmetics and an open fermentation tank from the former Wagga Wagga brewery that hasn’t been operational in around 80 years.
