Chubbles is our collaboration with our mates from the US, The Veil Brewing Co. Together we dreamt up a proper 10% triple IPA with 100% English malt, a ton of flaked oats, fermented with a specific English yeast, and hopped intensely with Galaxy, Citra, and El Dorado. Huge mouthfeel with a touch of sweetness. Mimics the mouthfeel/sweetness of actual orange juice (without the acidity). Proper mental aroma on this one too. Very pleased to share Chubbles with y'all!

Come along on a fantastic voyage because the boat is made to carry us all. Reprising one of our most popular releases from last year, this Double Dry Hopped IPA is an unashamed celebration of two hops that have become staples in modern beer, using Citra and Mosaic, hand-selected in Yakima. Waves of deep, vivid fruit flavour are carried by a full, smooth body reminiscent of tropical fruit juice, and balanced by Mosaic's classic dank, savoury character. Read Less

Though we miss being part of events and celebrations face-to-face, we take inspiration and energy from being part of such a good-hearted industry. Read Less

There is a flavour intensity to our DDH Pales, this one hopped with hand selected Rakau and Waimea, that we find affirming, yet also relaxing. A beer not confined, by strength and good judgement, to the shortest of measures, instead a beer for long and lingering pauses. One such pause during our hop selection trip was the ferry from Picton — hours along the sounds, and across the sea.

Aroma & Flavour:
Light herbal notes and pine lead into flavours of ripe apricot and lemon meringue

Body:
Medium-bodied and silky, with a lighter shirt finish

Aftertaste:
Lingering resinous notes accompany a light peppery bitterness Read Less
