Naturally resilient to drought and extreme heat, fonio is a nutritional powerhouse, packed with vitamins and minerals. The beer is Ancient Grain, a 5.2% ABV pale ale, double-dry-hopped with generous amounts of Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, and Chinook hops for bold aromas of passionfruit, tropical citrus, and a touch of pine.

• Two very expressive yeasts vie for attention in Liminal Messaging, DEYA’s new 6.3% ABV IPA. Loads of juicy sweet tropical fruit and old school pick ’n’ mix courtesy of Citra, Riwaka, and Motueka, with a dash of coconut from HBC1019.
