Hackett Bungy in Queenstown, created to capture the intensity of the countdown, the leap, and the rush.

Entered in the NZ IPA Challenge at Smiths Craft Beer Bar in Queenstown, Full Send brings together Queenstown energy, Epic hop obsession, and a brand new hop variety from Eggers Hops called ESHcapade.

ESHcapade brings bold New Zealand hop character, bright aroma, big flavour, and the kind of intensity worthy of the name.

This is a small batch, limited release beer. Once the NZ IPA Challenge results are announced, more people are going to be looking for it, and when it’s gone, it’s gone.

Competition entry. AJ Hackett Bungy collaboration. New Eggers hop variety.

No hesitation. No half measures.

Full Send.

An American Amber Ale with a treasure trove or flavours waiting to be discovered. The deep colour reveals a cara-malty vanilla sweetness over dry fruit and toffee with a zesty bitter finish.

5 on 4 and all action. Like a hockey penalty period this beer is all about the intensity, a powerplay of the best NZ hops. Sitting on a lean and crisp body with just enough alcohol and sweetness for balance this beer is a hop showcase. Intense aroma from a dry hop trifecta smack the nose with citrus zest, tropicality and orchard flowers. A backbone of classic NZ diesel pump ties it all together for a unique and delicious sharpness. As this is an NZ style IPA a classic lingering bitterness keeps it refreshing and drying.

With Kenyan Kainamu from C4 Coffee

They’re your faves - well-worn & comfy as, giving a little ‘swoosh’ when you walk. Pure shivery magic. Whoever says corduroy is dead hasn’t been fully ensconced in wide wale wonder. Who knew you’d find a beer to compliment those trusty strides?! But here you are. A raft of specialty malts including Simpson’s Maris Otter for authentic deliciousness snuggles up to Kenyan Kainamu micro-lot whole beans from C4 Coffee for threads of chestnut, shortbread & soft malt layered in a light java veil. Small alc profile with the promise of big flavour make it a moreish brew fit for any day. Corduroy optional.

Panhead - Hops are where it starts for the born-again craft head and Supercharger APA is where Panhead delivers. This is an all-American show with Centennial, Citra and Simcoe overwhelming your nose, kicking you in the taste buds and departing with more bitterness than a Palm Springs divorce. It's a seriously addictive combination.

5.2% ABV.

A heavyweight in every sense. Thick, hazy and full-bodied, this triple IPA hits with bold tropical fruit, bright citrus and a deep, resinous edge. Strata, Krush and Mosaic drive layers of passionfruit, mango and juicy citrus, with a dank undertone adding depth and bite. Rich through the palate with a smooth, rounded finish that carries the weight well.

The Darkness falls once more. Or should that be rises again? Boneface reanimate this old favorite, a rich American stout with all the chocolate and coffee notes a great selection of toasted malts can muster. What you won't see coming is the huge hop kick of citrus. You'll feel it in your bones.

Sessionable and award-winning, Rudi’s Lager is a super clean, crisp New-World brew featuring Dr Rudi hops – named after the man himself. Nelson Sauvin adds lift and character, striking a bold balance between a firm slap to the face and a warm embrace. Thirst-quenching – bloody refreshing – it’s lager the Rudi’s way: no fuss, all flavour.
