Footscray Draft is Hop Nation’s tribute to their west Melbourne home, a clean, crisp lager brewed for everyday drinking and easy sessions. The Footscray brewery has dialled in a textbook Aussie draft that nods to the classics while keeping the quality of a craft brewer.
Pouring a bright pale gold with a fluffy white head, it leads with subtle floral hop notes and a soft, biscuity malt aroma. The palate is rounded and clean, with light malt sweetness balanced by restrained bitterness and a snappy, refreshing finish.
It’s the sort of beer you’d happily commit a case to, ready for the barbecue, the beer garden or the long lean against the bar after work.
