This one was inspired by malt-forward Irish red ales and traditional English bitters that we wanted to hop-up like a modern American beer. On the nose is a slight malt sweetness followed by resinous pine and fresh lime zest. The taste is toffee, caramel, roasted malt, followed by a pine-hit of US Chinook and Columbus hops and a smooth bitterness. Read Less

DDH IPA W/ VIC SECRET & CITRA Having lived on a small island for a number of years, our two founders still love to travel between far away and far-flung micro-communities.

This is a big IPA to remind us of both our roots and past adventures; generously dry hopped (twice) with Australian Vic Secret and US Citra. Read Less

Te Reranga Wairua the North-western tip of New Zealand, where the Maori souls of the dead would depart the islands for the Underworld, and where the broken white waters of the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean clash in a tidal race. The rolling sea, the dramatic cliffs, and the lone lighthouse make a spiritual place of great beauty and quiet reflection. Where The Oceans Meet is a single-hopped Imperial New Zealand IPA, brewed with Moutere - a new and under-used big tropical hop, which brings wonderful flavours of nectarine, gooseberry, and lychee.
