The people's champ. A heavy medaller. The orange one, back on the block a decade later. Getting majorly malted-up and hop-loaded. More of everything that's made it iconic. Don't worry, Panhead have brewed a few Charger's before. Brewed their arses off ten times around the sun. And this is for everyone who rode with them. Cheers!

Not only did the Americans invent hot-rodding, they invented hop-rodding too. In the late 1960s a Tauranga teenager called John Reid threw a kiwi hat in that ring with the famed 'Vandal', a dazzling green flake 1919 Dodge bucket. In his spirit we're rising to the other challenge with a beer named in its honour - a big, bitter APA groaning with whole cone Nelson Sauvin, Motueka and Riwaka hops. Like any good hotrod, it's built to attract as much attention as possible.

This hazy, citrus and stone fruit accented IPA with a mellow, soft and silky texture gives a similarly refreshing change of perspective.

The troublesome original release, named for the problematic first brew day which hugely emphasised its hop bitterness. It's matured and evolved nicely over the years. Big tropical hop flavour from local varieties with strong bitterness from an English hop to honour its origins, all balanced by plenty of malt.

Falcons stalk the skies, commanding their territory with focus and intensity; a totem for this American Pale Ale. Parrotdog's interpretation of the style takes modern U.S. hop flavours of citrus and tropical fruit and lets them soar on a light and nimble body.

When the cliche? was coined that dogs are humanity's best friends, it was a Greyhound they had in mind. Whether your plans involve a run or a rest, a greyhound is up for joining in. Parrotdog dedicated their low carb hazy pale ale to them, and kept it fittingly lean and easy-go-ing, with sparkling citrus hop characters, good balance, and a crisp finish.

If the sky is clear and cool, and you're very lucky, you might witness a sundog: apparitions that accompany the true sun, an atmospheric trick of light and ice. Parrotdog's own Sundog, a pilsner starring the vivid passionfruit and white wine notes of New Zealand hops, is much easier to find, but just as crisp and bright.

They say its wings bring thunder and its eyes flash lightning, but the thunderbird's intensity is benevolent, its appearance a good omen. This bright IPA borrows its name to give a fresh retelling to a familiar story by keeping things lean, lucid and enlivening. Its dazzling tropical character comes thanks to a hop from North America, where these tales were first told.

Bright and lively like a parrot, but small and ubiquitous like a sparrow, the Yellowhammer adds a flash of colour and a musical chirp to open spaces all over the country. The way it does a lot with just a little inspires this smooth and refreshing hazy pale ale, streaked with the striking tropical notes of Strata hops.
