Unlike other beers, Kirin Ichiban only the first press of the wort is used. 'Ichiban Shibori' is a unique method of brewing beer at its purest from a single pure ingredient: 100% malt. This one-and-only technique gives Kirin Ichiban a unique taste and flavour found nowhere else in the world. Kirin Ichiban is a distinctively smooth and full-bodied beer from start to finish. It is the perfect accompaniment to a meal, be it Wagyu beef or spicy stir-fries.

Kronenbourg 1664 is a perfectly balanced lager, slightly bitter, soft, crisp and noble. Brewed using the Strisselspalt hop known as the 'caviar of hops' which gives the beer its refined bitterness, balanced with a hint of fruity and floral aroma.

This Hazy IPA is the perfect breakfast, brunch, lunch, smoko, dinner or last call beer with its sweet citrus taste and hazy good looks because you know it is 5 o'clock somewhere.

Lakeman's hand-picked mixed six selection. Stacked full of award-winning brews from Pilsners to IPA's and the odd seasonal release. It might just be the most-awarded Hairy Box in New Zealand.

Introducing Lakeman's new release 3×2 box of Haze, Haze for Dayz. This should hit all the right notes for lovers of hazy's. Joining their biggest seller 5 O'clock Somewhere are two brand-spanking new hazy IPA's Mornin' Glory and Sundowner. Mornin' Glory with an ABV of 5.5% has a fresh, zesty hit of citrus up front followed by sweeter mango notes. Sundowner is a little gem with its creamy body dominated by stone fruit and tropical flavours and comes in at 5.8%.

Touched by divine inspiration... or just an honest thirst chasing salvation one step at a time, the latest offering from the church of Lakeman (charitable status pending). Brewed with the purest water and blessed with notes of ripe apricot, juicy peach and bright tangelo this is a heavenly drop worthy of worship.

Sundowner is a little gem with its creamy body dominated by stone fruit and tropical flavours and comes in at 5.8%.

A West Coaster is usually a no-fuss character, and this IPA has the same laid-back attitude. It's a modern take on an IPA featuring iconic NZ hops - Rakau, Motueka, and Nelson Sauvin. A solid bitterness up front eases into a fruit-forward finish with layers of mango, guava, and cool white grape, the kind of laid-back fruitiness you'd expect from a West Coast commune somewhere up the Fox River.

Two Liberty fan faves in one; easy-drinking Oh Bro, and Jungle Juice - the untamed, palate-pounding Hazy. With the best bits of each brew carefully blended and balanced by hop savant, Juice Bro's soft mats highlight the citrusy pomelo and orange stylings of Mosaic and Amarillo cones.

This opaque, cross-country juggernaut matches an East Coast yeast style to West Coast hops and refuses to filter the results. The malt's deliberately soft so the Mosaic and Amarillo cones get to dictate terms, mostly by saturating your palate in passionfruit and pineapple. Welcome to the jungle and so forth.

Winner of the 2013 West Coast Challenge at the malthouse in Wellington - a palate-destroying smackdown you've got to experience to understand - Knife Party is a Swiss Army IPA featuring every US hop variety allowed through customs. If you heedlessly crave the hop, you've found the correct beer.

Oh Brother is this easy drinking! Made with some of the latest US hops (treated with moderation) and packed with flavours, this brew is a fruit salad fiesta with a nose of passionfruit, mangoes and subtle malts, a well balanced full body, right to the tropical biscuity, bittersweet end.
