Part of the "magic" of the NEIPA style happens through a process called biotranformation in which hop oils such as geraniol are transformed during fermentation into fruity/floral aroma compounds. Matcha is the finely ground powder of specially grown green tea leaves and, as it turns out, contains geraniol. Matcha Man is made with 1lbs/bbl of matcha, along with Bravo and Citra hops giving the beer a refreshing tea-like flavor!
