The Orange Roughy's scientific name is Hoplostethus atlanticus. Which roughly translates as, hazy, hoppy pale ale with a tropical fruit aroma, citrus flavour, and malty backbone. In the past, the roughy has been subject to unsustainable practices - completely selling out. Thanks to the hard work of our brewers, numbers are now on the rise. Careful you don't exceed your quota, though.

If you've been mowing your super-long lawn, running super-fast, or out in the super-hot sun, you'll need to super-quench your super-thirst. This Pacific Pilsner has been dry-hopped with NZ and US hops to make it super-tasty, while it's light body and crisp finish make it super-refreshing. At just 4% ABV, and 40% lower in carbs, you can feel slightly-smug, too.

New Zealand's first American style IPA, released in 2008, has gone on to be New Zealand's most awarded beer. In recent years, it has won six back to back Best in Class trophies around the world including New Zealand, Australia and Sweden.

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.

Named Freya after the Norse goddess of war, love, and destiny, this West Coast IPA stands as a tribute to power with purpose - bold, clear, and unrelenting. Crystal clear and golden with a punchy aroma of grapefruit zest, pine resin, and crushed gooseberries. The first sip hits with bright citrus peel, sharp pine, and dank herbal edges, followed by waves of ripe mango and blueberry from the Mosaic. A firm, cleansing bitterness grips the finish, leaving a dry, lingering echo of crushed florals and spice. Commanding. Clean. Divine. A West Coast IPA that strikes like thunder and moves like prophecy.

HaziNESS was brewed as a playful tribute to haze, mystery, and those rare people who keep everything running smoothly-without ever needing the spotlight. HaziNESS pours like a spring sunset-glowing gold beneath a soft, milky haze. On the nose, you're hit with a wave of ripe mango, crushed pineapple, and sweet citrus peel, backed by a gentle whisper of fresh-cut grass and soft pine. The mouthfeel is smooth and pillowy, almost creamy, with low bitterness and just enough carbonation to keep it bright. Each sip reveals new layers-peach fuzz, lime zest, and a dash of white grape-as if the flavour's shifting beneath the surface. It's a beer that doesn't shout; it invites you in and rewards you for sticking around.

Hops have taken over the world. Permeated the senses of the minions. Hop Zombies now roam the streets. Lupulin ichor oozing from ravaged legions. Gorging, gouging, masticating. Salivating over insane hop flavours and aromas. The time is nigh. No more festering away in hopless oblivion. Join the Hop Zombie Revolution.

Epic JIRA was never meant to exist. Crisp, composed, and forged with absolute precision, it reimagines the pilsner for a new world - taking the discipline, balance, and clarity of Japanese brewing and charging it with the vibrant character of modern hops. Riwaka brings an unmistakable burst of passionfruit, lime, and tropical lift, while Citra adds bright citrus and clean, refreshing drive.

Epic have used an 'Epic' amount of hops as you would expect from them. Epic have the biggest, juiciest, stickiest Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe hops they could find. A blend of T90 and Cryo hops to give the maximum desired aromas and flavours. It's like drizzling freshly squeezed passion fruit, mango and pineapple juice across your tongue. 5.3% alc/vol and a super low bitterness and maximum haze, will keep every Hazy-Head happy with being able to sit down and drink a few from the six pack.

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.

Epic have teamed up with the pioneers of adrenaline themselves - AJ Hackett Bungy New Zealand - to bring Thrill Seeker to life. This is a 6.7% NZIPA packed with the most powerful hop combo in the game: Nelson Sauvin. Nectaron. Riwaka. Punchy aromatics of passionfruit, white grape, and citrus zest hit first, followed by a rush of ripe stone fruit and crushed gooseberry. The palate is lean and focused - dry, bitter, and bristling with energy. It's sharp, electric, and built to leave a mark. If someone beats it on the day, fair play - that beer's a beast. But they're showing up swinging. Because if there's one beer made for Queenstown - the home of extremes - this is it.
