8 Wired – Hopwired IPA 7.3%
£3.49
Although there’s plenty of malty sweetness, this beer is all about the hops. But unlike an American IPA, which will mainly challenge you with grapefruity and pine-like flavours and aromas, the kiwi hops used in HopWired produce something more like a tropical punchbowl: Passion fruit, limes, oranges and Sauvignon Blanc grapes to name but a few.

Yeastie Boys – Bigmouth – Session IPA 4.4%
Seasonal, Beers, NZ Craft Beer Collective£2.69Bigmouth strikes again! Bigmouth is an extra pale, unfiltered hoppy session ale with a bold tropical and white wine notes from the Nelson grown New Zealand hops. A Luscious mouth feel, from the wheat and oats, carries the hop flavour across the palate before easing out with a dry (rather than bitter) moreish finish. A refreshing beer that's as at home at the beach or in the shower, as it is with canapés or at the dinner table.

8 Wired – Gypsy Funk – Wild Beer 7.5%
Seasonal, Beers, NZ Craft Beer Collective£9.89This is an intensely sour brew. Aged in wine barrels for up to 2 years, then heavily dry hopped with the unique flavors of all NZ hops. This is a very complex and super sour brew that was a massive hit for 8 Wired at GABS Auckland. A good amount of expletives were shared over its super sourness and heady, oily resin and heavy funk characteristics. A must try for the sour lover!

8 Wired – Saison Sauvin 7%
Beers, NZ Craft Beer Collective£3.69Saisons have been around for ages. Traditionally brewed by Belgian and French farmers to provide refreshment during harvest. These hardworking folk never imagined that centuries later their style of brewing would inspire brewers from all over the world. As all 8 Wired's beers, this is a very modern (you might say new world) interpretation of this style. Based on tradition they have used a French Saison yeast, providing a plethora of funky, earthy, very "Belgian" flavours. From there they have upped the ante a fair bit by loading the kettle with punchy Nelson Sauvin hops. Unlike the original, this is not a beer meant to be drunk by the gallon. Moderation is the key for full enjoyment of all great beers.

Beers, NZ Craft Beer Collective£6.99A collaboration with Modern Times out of San Diego called Halfway to Whangarei. 8 Wired brewed a Grisette and fermented it in one of their foeders with a Modern Times house yeast strain of Brett.
