Bright Yeah Nah Yeah Australian IPA

Brewery: Bright

Location: VIC

Style: IPA - Australian

ABV: 6.2% ABV

Inspired by the classic Aussie response! There are few things more Australian than settling into a wobbly white plastic deck chair under the full blast of the sun, as your mate calls out if you want a beer and you answer, as tradition demands, with a slightly drawn out "yeah, nah, yeah". It is a ritual as familiar as the heat itself. This Australian IPA, brewed with Prysma hops, captures that spirit. It is clean and crisp with bright citrus fruit, fresh pine and a smooth, easy finish that feels right at home on a hot afternoon.
