Behemoth Nelsonian Rhapzody

Punchy New Zealand IPA with juicy fruit, dank hops and a clean dry finish. Behemoth Nelsonian Rhapzody IPA is a punchy New Zealand IPA with juicy fruit, dank hops and a clean dry finish. Brewed at 6.7% ABV, it celebrates the world famous hop fields surrounding Nelson and Motueka, delivering vibrant aroma, confident bitterness and plenty of fresh hop character. The palate is bright and expressive, with juicy tropical fruit and citrus balanced by deeper dank and resinous notes. A firm West Coast inspired bitterness provides structure, while the dry finish keeps the beer crisp, refreshing and easy to return to. This is a great choice for those who enjoy bold New Zealand IPA with proper bitterness and a cleaner finish than a soft hazy style. Its lively fruit, dank hop intensity and connection to the Nelson hop growing region give it plenty of personality and genuine local character. Tasting Notes Aroma: Juicy tropical fruit, citrus, fresh hops and gentle resin. Palate: Bright and hop driven, with vibrant fruit, dank character and balanced malt. Finish: Clean, dry and satisfyingly bitter, with lingering citrus and resinous hops. About The Brewery And Region Behemoth Brewing Company was founded in 2013 by Andrew Childs. The business began as a contract brewery, producing beer at several different breweries around New Zealand while building a following for bold flavours, playful names and memorable can artwork. Following successful community funding campaigns, Behemoth established its own brewery and Churly’s Brewpub in Mount Eden, Auckland. The brewery has since become known for an adventurous range that includes classic lagers, expressive pale ales, powerful IPAs and creative speciality releases. Nelsonian Rhapzody looks beyond Auckland to Nelson, one of the most important hop growing regions in the Southern Hemisphere. The sunny climate and fertile land around Nelson and Motueka support many of New Zealand’s most distinctive hop varieties, prized for their tropical fruit, citrus, white grape and vivid green aromatics. This beer celebrates that regional hop culture with a bright and confident IPA made for those who appreciate the freshness, intensity and unmistakable character of New Zealand hops.
