The fiercely floral and fragrant hop, known as the earth wolf by the ancients, has been cunningly tamed with a soft, rich, maltiness.

Throwing caution to the hot desert wind agave juice has been used in the ferment to dry and temper the malt, so experimental hop NZH-102 can dominate with tropical fruit and blueberry notes. Small additions of mosaic, simcoe and nelson sauvin complement in the production of this big juicy hazy.

This hero of a double IPA is ready to confront any foe with power and might. A big hitter with power notes of citrus and apricot, Dragon Slayer cuts through the chaos with a great dankness. This is a smooth, stealth-like hunter you will not see coming.

If you hanker for a vibrant, clean IPA low on bitterness but big on flavour jump on the Flying Circus. It will barrel roll you with popping sweet navel and tropical delights leaving a trace of low altitude bitterness.

No guarantees this hazy IPA won't send you a little loopy-or downright loco. One sip and you're getting pushed 'round the bend by a fruit-forward punch of juicy peach, ripe mango, and tropical pineapple, all riding smooth on a pillowy malt base.

Lakeman's hand-picked mixed six selection. Stacked full of award-winning brews from Pilsners to IPA's and the odd seasonal release. It might just be the most-awarded Hairy Box in New Zealand.

For the lovers of Double hazy's! Cryo Sabro, Cryo Talus, Citra, and Nelson Sauvin produces a tropical juice bomb with a glorious flavour profile of coconut, mango, peach, citrus, and grape.

Lakeman (little), known for his meticulous planning, has delved into the research to deliver a cutting-edge malt base and a grand symphony of tropical juiciness, coconut, tangerine, and a hint of sauvignon. Was the criminal mastermind planning a Pina Colada?

A monument of NZ pilsner, proudly brewed with glorious Gladfield malts and a free rein of Nelson hops.

Two Liberty fan faves in one; easy-drinking Oh Bro, and Jungle Juice - the untamed, palate-pounding Hazy. With the best bits of each brew carefully blended and balanced by hop savant, Juice Bro's soft mats highlight the citrusy pomelo and orange stylings of Mosaic and Amarillo cones.

This opaque, cross-country juggernaut matches an East Coast yeast style to West Coast hops and refuses to filter the results. The malt's deliberately soft so the Mosaic and Amarillo cones get to dictate terms, mostly by saturating your palate in passionfruit and pineapple. Welcome to the jungle and so forth.
