This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to X5 - NZ Pilsner.

We love playing with new hops. This time we've used the NZ trial hop number "9909" in a New Zealand Pislner, supported by European noble hop Hallertau and NZ Riwaka to add some pilsnerish goodness. This creates an easy drinking beer for the times when you might need a "Daddy's Little Helper".

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 15A - Irish Red Ale.

Our take on an Irish red ale. A mix of Golden Promise and wonderfully fresh Gladfield specialty malts, combined with Goldings Hops and fermented with an English ale yeast results in malty complexity with a touch of fruity esters and a classic English hop flavour.

A beer made to drink by the pint.

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 21B - Specialty IPA - Belgian IPA.

The BJCP says: An IPA with the fruitiness and spiciness derived from the use of Belgian yeast. This beer has a more complex flavor profile and may be higher in alcohol than a typical IPA.

This one is brewed with a combination of New Zealand and German hops, providing it with a complex hop & Belgian yeast aroma backed by a solid malt base.

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 07A - Vienna Lager.

Summer has come and this is the perfect beer for a hot summer day. Cold, fizzy and super easy to drink. We've used a high percentage of Maize to lighten the body and provide a background impression of sweetness. Fermentation is done with M54 California Lager for crispness and minimal esters. For hops we've stayed in New Zealand: Wakatu & Motueka since we wanted a hint of lime (so you don't have to stuff a lime wedge into your beer).

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to 07A - Vienna Lager.

Mexico - known in the world for bland beers you need a lime to give flavor to - has also been strongly influenced by Austrian brewers sometime in the 19th century.
The Mexican Vienna style lager is a beautiful malty amber lager - clean bready & toasty malt flavors just balanced enough by noble hops to make this beer highly sessionable.

This recipe was not specifically designed to be consistent with the BJCP style guides, but we believe it is similar to X5 - NZ Pilsner.

We just can't get enough of NZ Pilsners! This one, unlike others we've made before, uses the holy trinity of Kiwi hops: Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin & Motueka - and the bitterness is kept to a civil level. Have a sip and you feel home. Nice.
