ANTIPODEAN VANILLA IPA | 6.0% | NECTARON, GALAXY, RIWAKA – It would be no great statement to say our owner Sean has seen an injection of ingenuity since the concept of utilising vanilla in our beers landed on his radar. The ability to replicate those ultra-pillowy New England IPAs that set off that initial spark of inspiration that birthed Polly’s in the first place has been a white whale we’ve been constantly chasing throughout our eight years, and this innovation, whilst not being the first brewery to utilise it, is certainly setting our beers to the next level. Wanting to keep things purely south of the Equator on this beer, we’ve gone with an all-South Pacific lineup of in-house favourite Galaxy, with NZ titan Riwaka, and everyone’s favourite hype hop Nectaron for an IPA that balances that fine line between thick, pulpy juice sweetness, and underlying bitterness that reminds you this is a beer, and a big Polly’s beer at that.
