For Garage Project's fourth hop harvest collaboration with East Coast brewing legends Trillium called for something special. For this, they ventured two hours south of Sunrise Valley, to the new Nelson Lakes Farm, situated in the Matakitaki Valley. The freshest hop growing location by their friends at Freestyle Farms. A hop free boil and massive dry hop addition of hand selected Nelson Sauvin and Motueka create a giant, juicy and unforgettable hazy homage to one of New Zealand's most exciting new hop growing regions. The finished beer has a dense, smooth, hazy malt base, with an intense ripe mango aroma and tropical fruit smoothie palate - dominated by mango, pineapple, passion fruit and rock melon back notes. It's Nelson Sauvin and Motueka, but not as we know it.

A beer festival in a box!!

Beer Festival in a Box!

East Coast anthem IPA - a big ol' hop poppa of a beer, packing in intense mango, tropical fruit hit from US big guns, Simcoe and Mosaic. It's just bigger and juicier than it's bitter West Coast counterpart, like sippin' hazy hop nectar from a can. It's all good.

Big things sometimes come in little packages. Say hi to Tiny: Brewed with pilsner malt, golden naked oats, Mosaic, Strata and Simcoe, Tiny is specially fermented to give you all the big, juicy hop character you've come to expect from a Hazy IPA - just without the alcohol. Yup that's right. Big flavour, without the booze so you can enjoy your hazy anytime. Tiny, but mighty.

A golden and juicy hazy pale ale with all the hoppy goodness and a more moderate alcohol level to extend those sessions in the deckchair, or however you enjoy your fine hazzies.

The rest of the country blames beer goggles but in Hamilton it's just as often that the fog leads to an overly-generous appraisal of a potential suitor. Fog City Hazy IPA is Good George's tribute to the pea soup that regularly turns up in the winter months. If required, you can give this squealer a gentle roll to bring the haze back, then share it out and raise a glass.

A sublime balance of hoppy and malty goodness. Chill the beers, let the sun shine, and make hay while you can. Haymaker IPA (5.8%) looks a sunset gold, and has aromas of lemon, herbs, and fresh cut hay. On the palate it has grassy notes, mandarin flavours, and a huge yet balanced hoppy finish.

Winner of the Smith's Craft Beer House 2022 NZIPA Competition, and Trophy winner at the 2022 New Zealand Beer Awards for the Juicy/Hazy category. The NZ hops that went into this brew (Nectaron, Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin and NZH-102) give it a massive hop kick, juicy mouthfeel, and a huge tropical hop aroma. 7.0%.

Inspired by the wave of punchy new world hops. A lovely soft malt backbone is balanced perfectly with juicy, mouth-coating hoppy goodness & a smooth lingering bitterness.

Crisp, golden and incredibly drinkable. This lager was brewed to be that perfect go to beer but with a beautiful and interesting hop forward aroma. Refreshing with a delicate malt flavor of cereals.
