This year, the Emerson's Brew Crew went to Clayton Hop Farm on an important mission to harvest a bounty of the freshest Nelson Sauvin hops. And when you pick fresh hops, you get Sticky Digits. Resinous, lupulin covered hands, and a rich, smooth, fresh hop hazy IPA, with grapey, gooseberry, limey flavours. They've got sticky, now it's time for you to get stuck in.

Big Tex... the Neon Cowboy. It packs a punch, releasing hops that kicks taste buds awake. Hop Varieties: Simcoe / Columbus / Mosaic.

Cold IPA is the ultimate chill brew, designed for those moments when you just want to kick back and enjoy life. With the first sip, you're taken on a flavour-packed journey that'll leave any IPA lover grinning. Brewed with a lager yeast and warm-fermented for a crisp, clean finish, this beauty is dry-hopped early with an epic blend of Citra, El Dorado, and Nelson Sauvin hops. The result? A pale, refreshingly light brew that explodes with tropical fruit, zesty citrus, and a hint of pine.

Hops have taken over the world. Permeated the senses of the minions. Hop Zombies now roam the streets. Lupulin ichor oozing from ravaged legions. Gorging, gouging, masticating. Salivating over insane hop flavours and aromas. The time is nigh. No more festering away in hopless oblivion. Join the Hop Zombie Revolution.

On the palate, Magical Unicorn offers an intricate tapestry of flavours. Tropical fruits dominate, with mango and melon taking centre stage, complemented by hints of peach and blueberry. The malt backbone provides just enough sweetness to support the fruitiness, while the bitterness is clean and crisp, coming through with an assertive citrus and pine note that adds depth and balance. The finish is dry and remarkably clean, with a lingering bitterness that beckons the next sip.

For decades, the Neon Cowboy has tipped his hat over Auckland, watching late-night antics, questionable dance moves, and epic yarns. He's seen it all - love, heartbreak, and that one guy who tried to ride a shopping trolley home. Now, he's got his own hazy IPA. Packed with El Dorado, Cascade, and Citra hops, it shines bright with tropical swagger and a citrusy wink. Saddle up, partner!

Epic have teamed up with the pioneers of adrenaline themselves - AJ Hackett Bungy New Zealand - to bring Thrill Seeker to life. This is a 6.7% NZIPA packed with the most powerful hop combo in the game: Nelson Sauvin. Nectaron. Riwaka. Punchy aromatics of passionfruit, white grape, and citrus zest hit first, followed by a rush of ripe stone fruit and crushed gooseberry. The palate is lean and focused - dry, bitter, and bristling with energy. It's sharp, electric, and built to leave a mark. If someone beats it on the day, fair play - that beer's a beast. But they're showing up swinging. Because if there's one beer made for Queenstown - the home of extremes - this is it.
