Polly’s Brew Co – River Season

Fresh Craft Beer from Our Bottle Shop and Taproom:

We’ve said it plenty of times before, but Nectaron landing at Polly’s HQ was an event in itself when we first got our hands on it in 2024. After what felt like an eternity of emailing and harassing our hop merchant when we finally got a bag into our hands and took a whiff upon opening it up, we knew we had a future lifeblood hop on our hands. As one of the most exciting hops to emerge from New Zealand’s world renowned hop breeding program, and taking over 17 years to perfect, the long development has paid off with possibly one of the most sought after and in demand hops on the planet today. River Season is a single hop tribute to the wonders those magicians working in the South Pacific are capable of – a big, bold IPA with a robust 19g/l dry-hop charge, creating a beer that does its heritage proud. Juicy grapefruit, ultra-ripe tropical fruits and bright, punchy pineapple notes are singing on this beer that showcases what we love about consistently discovering new hops to work with.
