IPA

440ml Can

6.3% ALC./VOL.

Ride the gnar into a journey of American hops, lapping up bodacious notes of citrus, pine, and la fruta tropical. This groovy sun child offers pleasant bitterness, layered over a generous malt base, sip after righteous sip. Ya dig?

 Sicilia Aperitivo Spritz Beer 5.5% 440ML

Who doesn’t love the idea of lounging in the Sicilian sun, sipping a spritz, and ciao-ing all the locals?
With tangy orange, bitter spice, and a touch of bubbles, the elements that make an Italian spritz so bellissimo are captured in this unique experimental ale. Ciao Bella!

Mandarin Mahu 4.5%

Inspired by sunny Kiwi summer days and named after the beautiful area surrounding 8 Wired. A remix of our summer favourite Mahu lager juiced up with piles of local Mandarins. It's a German style lager that's going to get you dreaming of the beach, the bach, and sailing around bays in the old Optimist.

Creating positive change in the New Zealand brewing industry. The Good Fight, a series of collaborative brews, with all profits going towards building educational resources for New Zealand breweries. For this year's Good Fight brew, we have teamed up with our friends at 8 Wired. We have brewed a hazy NZ hopped IPA featuring Moutere, Riwaka and late harvest Nelson Sauvin, fermented with Tropicale yeast strain. This hop combo gives aromas of orange, passionfruit, nectarine with a hint of dankness for good measure. We played with the malt bill, using a pinch of darker malts to give the beer a 'sundown hue'.

Grab ya sunnies, because this ray of sunshine delivers a clean, juicy, and bright IPA that’s as fruity as it is refreshing. American and New Zealand hop flavours of stone fruit, fresh citrus, and tropical fruit radiate over a light malt base that’s as unclouded as a perfect summer. With a dappling of Superdelic to boost the grooviness, this beer isn’t just brewed - it’s Born to Shine.

 Blossom Blonde Ale 5%

brewed with flowers and honey

Spring has sprung, and ‘tis the hour.
For bees to bumble, flower to flower
Elderflower, lavender, a touch of rose
Chamomile and lemon delight the nose
Lemon and honey, petals of calendula
Make a blonde ale that tastes… um……… oh, forget it.
Blossom is light and delicate, elevated by a subtle bouquet of actual flowers. Enhanced with local Matakana honey and just a hint of lemon, this is a bloomin’ refreshing drop.

Big City Hazy IPA

Let The Good Times Roll

  We’re excited to share our latest releases with you!

Drawing inspiration from the shoegaze music genre—known for its lush layers of distortion and dreamy reverb—we’ve crafted a brew that perfectly complements the hazy nature of NEIPAs.

 Big City Hazy IPA 6.2%

 Big City is a tropical trip, distorted by haze, and buzzy as a droning synth. Resonating layers of Mosaic, with licks of Motueka and Galaxy hops deliver a psychedelic fruit salad packed with mango, guava, pineapple, lime, and apricot. This is not a beer that can stay underground for very long. After all, every flavour we love can be found here.
