first time i had it 8 or 9 years ago it was very fugglesy, traditional (although presumably NZ grown) english sort of hop flavour. then it seems to have got a bit more cascadey lately. NZ cascade i'm assuming. i'd go something like 1055 of pale malt with a pinch of crystal and maybe some munich, 50 IBU of NZ cascade + maybe NZ styrian/goldings/saaz

it's a nice beer. post back and let us know what you end up making and how it compares, i could go something like that for my next brew. although i think it's one of those well made beers where process and fine details would really make the beer rather than just choice of ingredients.
