Commiserations. We regret to inform you that you haven't made the Naughty List. You're officially Nice. If it's any consolation, this beer is no less naughty. A big, bold Hazy Double IPA, with intense citrus and tropical flavours, and blueberry aromas. At 7.8% ABV it's a good one to share, perhaps with one of your Nice friends.

Released in 2008, Armageddon IPA delivered hop intensity never seen before in New Zealand. It remains a benchmark for the style and a defining beer in Epic's history. It's bold, piney and assertive - for the IPA lovers. Proudly NZ's Most Awarded IPA & NZ's first American style IPA.

Epic BLUE Low Carb Pale Ale delivers crisp refreshment with less than half the carbs of Epic Pale Ale. A blend of Pale Ale and Pilsner malts creates a light golden body with subtle malt sweetness, while carefully selected hops drive its bright, signature aroma. Crafted with meticulous hop sourcing and close relationships with growers, this 4.8% pale ale brings full flavour without the weight.

Coming of Age was built with time in mind. Chocolate and roasted malt lead the profile, supported by a firm body and a clean, deliberate finish. There are no shortcuts here. No added sweetness to soften the edges. No distractions. The goal is a stout that stands on its own knowing that time will eventually take it further. Brewer's Cut is the first expression of the beer - complete, composed, and released as intended. A snapshot of the stout before time reshapes it.

A flavour-first approach in a lighter, lower-carb hazy format. Soft haze, fresh citrus notes, and restrained bitterness make it an easy-drinking beer that still feels expressive. A lighter hazy option, still Epic.

There's always that moment. You're not looking for anything new. You've known the bold ones, the bitter ones, the loud personalities. Then she walks in. Dolcita. Sweet, not simple. Peach on her lips, mandarin in her laugh, a tropical glow that pulls you closer. You pair her with Cascade, a classic with floral charm and grapefruit bite. They dance. She stays bright, soft, magnetic. She doesn't overwhelm the room, she changes it. And once you've met her, she's impossible to forget.

Fire Horse is this year's annual fresh hop release from Epic. Using fresh Riwaka hops from Eggers Hop Farm in upper Moutere, the hops are picked at peak condition and flown same day from farm to brewery, then brewed the same day while their oils and aromatics are at full intensity. This narrow harvest window is the only time a beer like this can be made during the year - capturing freshness, energy, bold juice and aroma that simply doesn't exist outside the season.

A bold evolution of the pilsner tradition, brewed with the spirit of San Francisco's iconic landmark. Crisp NZ pilsner malt lays the foundation, lifted by a touch of Vienna to support its bigger 6.7% frame. Then comes the hop wave: Citra leads with bright bursts of lime, grapefruit, and mango, while Mosaic adds layers of berry and resin. Like the bridge it's named after, Golden Gate West Coast Pilsner connects worlds: tradition and innovation, refreshment and intensity, New Zealand craft and California inspiration.

Released in 2011, Hop Zombie quickly earned cult status around the globe. Built with multiple dry hop additions and a massive hop load. Hop Zombie delivers dense tropical fruit, sticky resin, and a long, saturated finish. The time is nigh. No more festering away in hopless oblivion... join the Hop Zombie Revolution!

The original Epic beer, this American Pale Ale is bursting with aromas of Lychee, Turkish Delight, and citrus. The perfect beer if you want hops (but not too many) and a full, flavourful Pale Ale.

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.

A refreshingly lively lager with hints of tropical, fruit like notes and a mild bitterness. DB Export 33 has an ABV of 4.6%. This full flavoured lager was launched in 2008 and named 'Best Low Carbohydrate Beer in New Zealand' in 2009 and 2010 at the NZ Beer Awards. It also became the first New Zealand low carb beer to win a Gold medal at the prestigious Monde Selection awards in Belgium in 2010, winning Gold again in 2011.
