An ongoing series of occasional one off releases inspired by the nice ideas captured in Parrotdog's Lyall Bay Brewery. Limited Release 33 is a Hazy IPA brewed with Galaxy, Cryo Citra and Cryo Mosaic hop varieties, showcasing intense juicy tropical and citrus fruit characters, with a smooth mid-palate and cleansing moderate bitterness.

2024 NZ Brewers Guild Trophy winning Pilsner. 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.

A good watchdog is the perfect companion, a relaxed and friendly presence but always alert and attentive. It's a rare mix of traits but Parrotdog's brewers have taught a similar trick to this Watchdog, a refreshingly non-alcoholic IPA, with a pale malt backbone and lively hop flavours of citrus and stonefruit, but no bite.

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.

Pale-gold in colour, with aromas of tropical fruit and a hint of citrus. A smooth bitterness with flavours of peach, pineapple and tropical fruit.

Pale Straw in colour with aromas of tropical grapefruit and pineapple. A thick oily hoppy base with a smooth bitterness and deep juicy hoppy flavours.

A rich, luscious and full stout, tempered with a home-baked raspberry crumble character and a dark chocolatey background.

Bold in colour with bright citrus aromas. A refreshing hit of grapefruit flavours and a crisp bitterness making an easy, satisfying finish.

Established in 1987, the brand is named after the small Otago township of Ranfurly. A great tasting and refreshing draught ale that is New Zealand
