Over at Bach they've been on the hops again ... big intense West Coast USA hops! The classic Californian West Coast IPA style originates from the late 70's and emerged in NZ circa just twenty years ago. All about the perfect balance between alcohol, malted barley, and high intensity of hops, to deliver max flavour and drinkability, they brewed their more modern take with a truckload of fruit driven hops including Idaho 7, Mosaic, Citra, and Simcoe.

Bach Brewing have been on the hops again... reminiscing a glorious safari trip pre-Bach Brewing days. Their latest brew is loaded with a Rhino's weight of Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin, Mosaic and Citra hops, and juicy malts originating from the fertile plains around Feilding. 8.2% ABV.

Originating from East Coast USA, the New England or Hazy IPA style de-emphasizes hop bitterness and showcases hop flavour and aroma reminiscent of tropical fruit juice.

A healthy permanent haze and smooth mouthfeel turn our award-winning Sculpin IPA into a tropical oasis. The hop selection creates refreshing notes of pineapple and guava with no fruit added. Simply put, this brew is paradise in the palm of your hands.

This Sculpin IPA is a great example of what got Behemoth into brewing in the first place. After years of experimenting, they knew hopping an ale at five separate stages would produce something special. The result ended up being this gold-medal winning IPA, whose inspired use of hops creates hints of apricot, peach, mango and lemon flavours.

Beck's is to this day brewed according to Reinheitsgebot - the German Purity Law - and states that only 4 natural ingredients can be used in its brewing, barley, hops, yeast and water. Beck's is full of character and instantly recognisable by its pure, crisp and fresh taste, with a slightly bitter aroma.

Like walking into the kitchen where the sweet smell of freshly baked apricot pie hits you like a warm hug? Yeah, that's this. But with a wild, rebellious twist, bold, zesty, and a little cheeky. Apricot Pie is a sour ale world with a soft, fruity finish that'll leave you both smiling and salivating. It's like your Nana's apron-wearing hands got their brew on, crafting a pie with a little extra "kick". It's unapologetically fruity, this ain't no typical sweet treat. Apricot Pie is here to twist your taste buds and steal your heart, one tart, juicy sip at a time.

Hops are pretty chur, right? That's why this IPA is loaded with a generous blend of the chur-est NZ hops, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of top-notch malts. The result? A massive burst of hop flavour and aroma that'll have one reaching for another sip-or swig. Whether they're enjoying this hop-filled fruit salad on its own, at a BBQ, or with some fish and chips at the beach, it's the perfect companion. Chur!

This is not your typical Hop Buddies. Instead Behemoth have opted for a West Coast version. Why? because Jason Bathgate and Andrew Childs LOVE West Coast IPAs! This beer is about 2 buddies coming together and using some of their favourite hops Nelson Sauvin and Mosaic in all of their glory. 9 years ago Jason and Andrew were involved in a horrible brewing accident leaving both with burns on over 40% of their bodies. Thankfully they have recovered and are currently doing what they love, making great beer. But without the help of Westpac Rescue Helicopter (amongst many others) they might not still be here right now.

A tiny Churlymata, facing the jaws of a gargantuan zombie Great White Shark. But fear not, because in this tale, the little guy isn't going down without a fight! Just like that feisty fish, this Imperial Stout boasts a boldness that can't be tamed, with layers of rich, complex flavours. Dive into the depths of flavour with Dead in the Water. This blended Barrel Aged Imperial Stout is aged to perfection in a daring trio of Rum, Bourbon, and Red Wine barrels, creating a symphony of taste that'll have you hooked from the first sip.
