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.
Lakeman have embraced the Dubai Chocolate trend and created an indulgent pastry stout. A sweet and creamy chocolate malt base balanced with a little roastiness, and earthy pistachio creates a decadent stout.
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.
A bold hop forward IPA with aromas of summer fruit, citrus, and a hint of pine. A smooth malt ends with a pop of citrus. Hopped with Moutere, NZ Chinook and Taiheke.
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.
Get your opposable thumb around Lakeman's crisp new world style Pilsner. Straw in colour and of light malt character with lemon citrus notes and pacific jade hops providing a soft bitter finish. Hopped with Pacific Jade, Motueka, Riwaka. A great match for fish and chips on a Friday night.
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.
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.
