SHINING PEAK - HICK'S PARLOUR MILK STOUT (NITRO)

Craftwork - scotch bonnet flanders brown ale
8%
Flanders Brown Ales, or Oud Bruins, are from East Flanders in Belgium. We aged this brown ale for a year, in whisky barrels from Dunedin's (sadly, extinct) distillery. The malt bill, mostly Gladfield's Ale malt was given a touch of smoke, from Peat and Manuka. Gentle hopping, combined with the subtle malts and wild mixed yeast strains, have produced a complex, but balanced beer, with an oaky character. The tartness, derived in the barrel from the old beer, we mellowed with a younger batch. We thought the combination of the old and young warranted an image of the young pretender himself. Likely, The Bonnie Prince stopped off at Oudenaarde for a glass, either to, or from his forlorn adventure.
Scotch Bonnet will increase in depth and sourness in time; much like the House of Stuart's view of the Hanoverian shambles across the water. This berr will not be to everyone's taste, nor will it easily fit within a style parameter: A Belgian Scotch - Old Brown - Provision Ale anyone? Slainte! |

parrotdog - birdseye hazy ipa

Our feathered friends see the world differently. Through birds’ eyes, things might look almost psychedelic to us, with heightened colours and fresh hues forming a surprising new spectrum. This hazy, citrus and stone fruit accented IPA with a mellow, soft and silky texture gives a similarly refreshing change of perspective.

8 Wired - kohia wit
5%
Kohia is a modern Kiwi take on a classic Belgian Wit, brewed with an experimental blend of Hops and botanicals from our friends at Freestyle Hops. This blend is made with Kohia, also known as New Zealand Passionfruit, and a plethora of New Zealand Hops, including Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and NZ Cascade. The result is a beer with a tropical, citrusy kick to balance out the delicate, slightly sweet base of Pilsner and Wheat.

McLeod's - celtic warrior double ipa

Winter always makes us yearn for stronger versions of our favourite styles. One of our fave releases this year is Celtic Warrior DIPA. Loaded with Citra, Idaho 7 & Nectaron, this beer is bursting with tangerine & pineapple on the nose & palate. But even giants need tempering, & this Goliath-sized brew is underpinned with enough malt for rounded, lingering bitterness & one unforgettable pour.

ZEFFER - SLACK MA GIRDLE DRY CIDER
6.7%
Our 2021 Slack Ma Girdle is a full bodied, dry cider with a deep amber hue. This cider has ripe apple and tropical fruit notes on the nose with spice and a firm, challenging tannin structure on the palate, making it a great cider to pair with food. We think this one is particularly tasty alongside strong or creamy cheeses.
