Brewer Description: (from website) This is the last of our 2022 Freestyle-ONLY brews – and we saved the best for last. V4 contains what very little amounts of Peacharine we were able to get our hands on, along with other Freestyle favs like Southern Cross, Pacifica and Wakatu. V4 has plenty of pineapple and mango / tropical feels, dry and refreshing and with a touch of Peacharine is a fitting finish to ‘22 (bring on ‘23!)🔥
