PARROTDOG - TINA  HAZY  IPA

7.0%
Tina tended her garden with the care of a master horticulturist, patiently propagating new varieties of her favourite plants, always searching for that revolutionary hybrid. The ripe fruit flavours of this hazy IPA — citrus, tropical, even a little stonefruit — come from Nectaron, a newly-released cultivar and the result of years of similar work in the hop fields of New Zealand. A fine tribute to Tina and all her botanical friends.

HALLERTAU  -  CITRUS  SQUEEZE  SOUR

Round like an orange or grapefruit or a lemon even. At citrus season end, what is left on the trees we harvest to squeeze. Zested, squished, mashed and soured.

CRAFTWORK  -  GOOD  LORD  TRIPEL 

9.0%
 This triple, highlights organic pilsner and toffee malt, and balances Nelson’s organic noble hop varieties. The Craftwork brewers chose the classic Wallonian Trappist yeast to give full expression to aroma and flavour. This beer need not be rushed and may be cellared for many years as it will evolve in the bottle. A warming drink, Good Lord Gold pours with a rocky head and a golden hue. It is best served in a chalice or red wine glass. Accompany with mature hard cheese, or sourdough loaves and fishes. Most importantly, relish a glass with your loved ones on your own special feast days.

WILDERNESS  -  ROSETTA  FLANDERS  RED

Other Champion beers have come and gone in the intervening years but due to the 2+ year cask aging in oak process we have had to be patient. Well the wait is finally over.

BEER  BARONESS - HERITAGE  ROUGE  RED  ALE

One of Beer Baroness' favourite flagship beers (Lady Danger) has been the inspiration behind this deliciously smooth and full bodied hoppy red ale. Heritage Rouge, with a lower ABV and an all American hop combination, you are greeted with grapefruit, lime and subtle sweet tropical fruit on the nose along with a mixture of dark berries, bittersweet caramel, chocolate and a rounded toasty sweetness. Close your eyes and this is a genuine heavily hopped pale ale, with just a twist of an amber malt profile in the tail.
