Hapi Sessions 2025, three collaborations, three breweries at the top of their game, three beers, each showcasing a different hop forward style in a playful 'freestyle' interpretation of one of the beers that helped to make each brewery famous. Britannia's best and brightest, Deya, join Garage Project on a journey to the heart of hoppiness with Crest of the Wave. Luscious Hazy IPA swimming in a citrus saturated tropical fruit explosion of harvest fresh Freestyle Riwaka, Nelson Sauvin, Nelson Lakes Cascade finished with a twist of Citra and Simcoe.

The monster hop has taken a new form. The same all-star cast of New Zealand grown Nelson Sauvin and Rakau hops, now shrouded in haze. Juicy grapefruit, passionfruit and dank resin, fused in a swirling otherworldly Hazy IPA. The beast is back.

Looks like it's your lucky day. Lucky Charm, polotmavé pivo, Czech style amber lager. A generous blend of Pilsner, Vienna, Munich and Midnight Wheat, balanced with Saaz and Celeia hops and fermented with a Czech yeast. The result is a superbly smooth lager, with restrained hop notes, soft, rounded malt mouthfeel with hints of caramel and fresh baked bread crust. Works like a charm.

The arrival of hops to the brewing scene in England in the 1500s led to a moral panic, hops were described as 'a Wicked, & Pernicious Weed', feared to bring the downfall of civilized society. Thankfully, they were right.

Original cult classic Pernicious Weed, now in delicious Yuzu flavour. Super sour fresh Yuzu zest and freshly squeezed juice collide head on with Nelson Sauvin and Rakau in a giant-foamy-super-golden-fruity-citrus-hop-bomb-explosion! It shouldn't taste this good, but it does.

A hidden valley of hops. Tutaki Haze, luscious hazy IPA, brewed with juicy New Zealand grown malted barley, wheat and oats and hops grown on the Nelson Lakes farm at the meeting point of the Matakitaki and Tutaki rivers. It's Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and Riwaka like never before, loaded with ripe tropical mango, passionfruit and lifted lime citrus. Discover a new world of flavour.

Garage Project are getting the band back together. Sydney's wonderkids One Drop team up with the GP for a contemporary West Coast remix of the OG Home, Land & Sea. It's Canterbury malted barley, wheat and a massive 'clean fusion' addition of their favourite hops from across New Zealand, all finished with a touch of Marlborough sea salt. Massive citrus, passionfruit and a hint of sour diesel sativa meld perfectly with subtle salt and clean balanced bitterness. It's home time.

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.

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.
