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.

Last year's People's Choice champions return in retrofuturistic fashion, promising a cosmic journey of flavour with a beer that embodies the era where love, style, and 64-bit pixelated adventures ruled the roost. Will Atari Baby reign supreme? That's for the people to decide...

A Low Carb beer that just isn't about being low carb, it is about the flavour. It is a Low Carb Pale Ale that has the incredible hop aroma and hop flavour you expect from a typical Epic beer. Luke Nicholas owner/founder of Epic Brewing Company says 'we were shocked when reading that Low Carb beer sales were greater than the total Craft Beer market in New Zealand. On hearing this I could feel the pain of a great number of drinkers who were drinking low carb, but at the cost of a really delicious beer. It was time to help them out, as we did back in 2005 when we helped the whole of the New Zealand beer market with the wonderfully dry hopped Epic Pale Ale'.

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.

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.

Lupulingus, The name? Oh, it's brilliant! It's a fusion of "Lupulin" (that glorious resinous compound extracted straight from hops) and "Lingus" (yes, that's a cheeky nod to ones taste buds). With a 9% ABV, this Imperial IPA packs 40% more hops than its notorious sibling, Hop Zombie, and blasts ones senses with a jaw-dropping 101 IBUs. Yeah, that's right-101. We're talking hop intensity on a scale that'll make lesser IPAs weep.

Multiball Hazy IPA presents a dense, golden haze that promises an explosion of flavour, much like the exhilarating chaos of a multiball in pinball. With the first sip, you're immersed in a wave of tropical bliss - juicy mango and ripe pineapple take centre stage, enhanced by a zesty citrus burst that dances on your palate. Mosaic hops introduce a hint of complexity with subtle berry notes, while Citra delivers a lively, refreshing citrus punch. Cascade hops elevate the profile further, adding grapefruit and lychee notes for a vibrant exploration of flavours. Just as in pinball, where the excitement builds as multiple balls fly around the playfield, each sip of Multiball brings a thrilling rush, igniting a sense of adventure and achievement as you savour the dynamic interplay of tastes.
