With more road cones than people in NZ, we thought why not throw some in a brew? Not the orange plastic ones, but the whole cone Nelson Sauvin variety to release their hop oils. Big-hitting Sauvignon notes are layered on a background of Guava and soft bitterness produced by Kohatu. This juicy ale sits on a bready cookie-like base with an oily, candied hop decadence.

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.

The stuff of legends, the rogue hog roams somewhere beyond the black stump - feared, hunted, but never caught. Like its namesake, this West Coast IPA charges with upfront citrus and pine and then wallows in dankness. Too good not to dive in snout-first.

This is an absolute belter of a West Coast IPA with upfront citrus followed by the tropical notes of pineapple, mango, and berry with a rowdy bitterness that will cradle your palate and leave your tastebuds ringing.

Don't trust this suited charlatan with the great Mo - this is pure snake oil. No ailments will be healed... but your taste buds? They're in for a proper treat. Bursting with coconut, lime and tropical trickery - smooth, juicy and dangerously convincing. No cures. No miracles. Just pure delicious deceit.

An approachable and beautiful hazy packed with Mosaic and Simcoe, imparts stone fruit and tropical notes. A hint of Amarillo gives a zesty little finish.

Lakeman is truly Taupo proud, and this New Zealand Pale Ale pays homage to their home. It is brewed with iconic kiwi hops Riwaka and Moutere, giving bursts of passionfruit and citrus on an approachable malt.

Officially NZ's #1 IPA for 2022 as voted by the NZ Brewers Guild. This crushing double IPA, named for the legendary hop that predominates it, is one of New Zealand craft brewing's original palate benders, famous for squeezing every last drop of flavour and aroma from its American namesake. Strong notes of citrus shouldn't surprise anyone who reads the label.

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.

Winner of the 2013 West Coast Challenge at the malthouse in Wellington - a palate-destroying smackdown you've got to experience to understand - Knife Party is a Swiss Army IPA featuring every US hop variety allowed through customs. If you heedlessly crave the hop, you've found the correct beer.
