Area 51 is shrouded in mystery, with conspiracy theories afoot. Grey Area 5.1 isn't so different. While it's called a 'Cream Ale', it contains no cream, milk, or lactose of any sort. So what is the Unidentified Flavoursome Object that makes it so deliciously-smooth? Well, that's classified. But we can divulge that this beer is a little coconutty, and a lot refreshing. We suggest you pop on your tin-foil hat and open this can, so you can get to the bottom of it.

This is a NZ version of a German version of a Czech version of a German beer. The Germans created lager, the Czechs turned it into a pilsner, the Germans tweaked it, and then Emerson's did their bit... Sound complicated? It's actually beautifully simple. Light in body, slightly hoppy, and very refreshing. Prost! Or should that be na zdravi? Cheers, anyway, however you choose to say it.

After a hard day's fighting to the death in the Colosseum, you deserve something a bit special. Gladiator Bock is so decadent it's fit for an emperor's plaything. Rich, dark, and a little bit strong. The blend of five malts meld together beautifully over many weeks, to deliver an indulgent ruby-brown Spartacus of a brew. It's not for the faint of heart, or the faint of taste bud.

The kaleidoscope was invented by a scotsman by the name of Brewster. So, it seems appropriate to name a brew after his creation. The words mean beautiful and form. And thats exactly what you'll get from this hazy pale ale. It's a kaleidoscope in your mouth.

Dunedin born & brewed.

As a young man, Richard Emerson was a huge fan of the Dunedin Sound. Being deaf, he couldn't hear the music, but he could feel it. From the jangling guitars reverberating through the speakers, to the buzz reverberating through the gigs. This beer is a tribute to The Sound, made with NZ hops for a bold local flavour, that will reverberate around your taste buds.

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. We got sticky, now it's time for you to get stuck in.

If you've been mowing your super-long lawn, running super-fast, or out in the super-hot sun, you'll need to super-quench your super-thirst. This Pacific Pilsner has been dry-hopped with NZ and US hops to make it super-tasty, while it's light body and crisp finish make it super-refreshing. At just 4% ABV, and 40% lower in carbs, you can feel slightly-smug, too.

It turns out, Hunterville is a pretty funky place. Home to the first-ever commercial brewer's yeast isolated from the New Zealand wilderness, that goes by the name of Wilding. A funky, fruity farmhouse ale, with a hint of spice, light malt, and a subtle hoppy finish. Froth Technologies approached us asking if we wanted to be involved in this project and we jumped at the opportunity to be the first brewery to use this new, native, commercial beer yeast isolate. This yeast was captured with an air trap on the banks of the Rangitikei River.

If you're looking for a planet friendly, plant-based alternative to cow's milk you've come to the right can. Oatski is a collaboration with Emerson's friends at Otis Oat M!lk. 200 litres of Southland-grown oat milk went into the tank with Motueka, Rakau, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops. The result is a rich, fruity, hazy IPA, with a luxuriously creamy mouthfeel. They haven't tried it on cereal yet, but it's great in a glass.

This is a classic West Coast (USA) style IPA. It has a dry finish, with limited malt sweetness, which accentuates the hop flavour and hop bitterness. So the beer is punchy on hop flavour, and firm lingering hop bitterness. The bitterness is 66 IBU - hoppy, bitter, dry.

After the massive success of Blue Low Carb Pale Ale Epic now have a Hazy joining their low carb family. Crush is a fresh and fruity hazy pale ale with full flavour and 75% less carbs than their Joose Party Hazy Pale Ale.
