A Single Hop DIPA made with our Wh?nau at Freestyle Hops. Championing the choice as kiwi cone Motueka - here we've used Freestyle Mid-late harvest Motueka, Sunshine Valley low-temp kilned Motueka, and Motueka SubZero Hop Kief? extract to capture all that bright citrus intensity Mot gives. Also, with the power of beer & friendship, we were able to supercharge this DIPA by utilising a rare Thiol-activated yeast strain in conjunction with an Australian exclusive shipment of Mega Motueka? - an exciting new hop blend born out of a collab between Freestyle Hops and Phantasm NZ. Tu meke!

This here is the third rendition we have whipped up in our Fairy Floss Sour Series.

Brewed to be sweet and fruity, with a lick of tartness, we start with our classic kettle-sour base, dosed with raspberry and blueberry pulp to keep any celestial being satiated. And, to top it off, laoded with more boxes of ol’ school fairy floss than should ever be allowed near a beer.

A heavenly fruit filled tarty dream for your mouth.

These rites affirm the sacred wheel of mix-ferment-consume, the sacredness of the humble grain, the natural connection to fruit of the earth, oneness with divine intervention that drives fermentation, all expressed through the goddess-like medium of aqua. There are rites that honour timely traditions of olde with the evolutionary times of the new. From the many, from the dark, a few runes light an arc: FIG, ??M??, B???KB???Y, ????? ????M. Shall the 4s be with you.

A new take on Chardonnay with a light bubbly, a dry taste and a little sediment from the winemaking process. This is dry, medium bodied and savoury.

This wine was fermented in the bottle in a similar style to the way that Champagne is made, only this wine was not disgorged (to remove the yeast lees), which means it may contains some sediment from the winemaking process.

Merlot is the queen in this dry rosé with its pale pink colour and a style of flavour that is modelled on dry southern French pink wines. Winemaker Dan Brennan has gone for savoury flavours with a fruity appeal; expect to find notes orange blossom, crushed wild thyme, and ripe berries.

Beautiful Martinborough Pinot Noir with hints of spice and savoury earthy flavours in a wine with structure and a long finish. 

This Pinot Noir was made from the superlative 2020 vintage from the vineyard now known as Dublin Street, very near to Martinborough village. 

Impressive, smooth, creamy and savoury tasting Hawke's Bay Chardonnay made from grapes that were pressed straight to barrel with some wild yeasts and some commercial yeasts. Lots of lees stirring builds richness in the wine, without dominating its creamy nuances. Aged in a combo of barrel and stainless steel. Nice balance.

 Attractive dark colour with ruby highlights. Tenacious tan head. Truffle / Mushroomy, dried fruit and milk chocolate aromas. Surprisingly tart at first taste, giving way to rich cocoa, prune, dried apricot flavours. Bitterness is well integrated. A well balanced beer with a mouth-coating and silky finish.
