Layered with double flavour. Hops, cryo hops and hop oil deliver a hit of passionfruit and pineapple, backed by mixed malts for a big body and a bittersweet finish.
| Aroma | Big tropical hop hit — passionfruit and pineapple up front |
| Taste | Double-layered hops over a full mixed-malt body |
| Finish | Bittersweet and lingering |

THE SOP GENESIS
After 25 years in big beer our founder Grant Caunter got bored with the booze (and being 50kgs overweight). He still loved beer but his affair with alcohol was over. Hello to a world of non-alc! In NZ back in 2022 there was not a lot of choice, so who better to start NZ’s zero alcohol brewery.
THE ANYWHERE BEER
We’ve seen State of Players enjoying our brews under waterfalls; while bike-riding in the forest; next to rivers and lakes; up mountains and while relaxing in mineral pools. And we asked ourselves – have we just invented ‘The Anywhere Beer’?
