To Celebrate the return of the not quite world famous Port Chalmers Seafood Festival, Emerson's brewed you a hop Festival. Superdelic, Nectaron, Simcoe, and Talus hops brings you delicious citrus, stonefruit, and pineapple flavours. A great pairing with all the fruits of the ocean. If you like beer, and seafood, you'll go cray cray for Cray Cray.

This is a love letter to Dublin, from 19,140 km away, in Dunedin. Written in Ireland's beautiful mother tongue: Stout. First, a serenade of coffee flavours and toasty notes, before tenderly giving way to delicate bitter, dry finish, that will leave you longing for more. Is tú mo ghrá, as they say in the other Irish dialect.

A hallucinatory, mind-bending, consciousness-expanding, dream-like experience is not what you'll find in this can. It's just a beer, man. But, this cloudy IPA does have a gnarly hit of Riwaka, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops, with a tropical citrus flavour, and a totally piney finish. At least it's a trip for your taste-buds. Far out.

Hold on to an Emerson's tasting where ever you go. The beach, the backyard, the back of beyond, or even just your place. This mini bar contains a carefully curated selection of favourites, so you can take your taste-buds on a journey, even while you're on a journey. Just make sure you keep it somewhere cold - this isn't actually a real fridge.

Area 51 is shrouded in mystery, with conspiracy theories afoot. Grey Area 5.1 isn't so different. While it's called a 'Cream Ale', it contains no cream, milk, or lactose of any sort. So what is the Unidentified Flavoursome Object that makes it so deliciously-smooth? Well, that's classified. But we can divulge that this beer is a little coconutty, and a lot refreshing. We suggest you pop on your tin-foil hat and open this can, so you can get to the bottom of it.

This is a NZ version of a German version of a Czech version of a German beer. The Germans created lager, the Czechs turned it into a pilsner, the Germans tweaked it, and then Emerson's did their bit... Sound complicated? It's actually beautifully simple. Light in body, slightly hoppy, and very refreshing. Prost! Or should that be na zdravi? Cheers, anyway, however you choose to say it.

The Heritage Range is a celebration of old favourites. Richard Emerson first brewed Weissbier way back in 1995. But the style goes way, way, way, way, way back to 16th century Bohemia. It's one of the original hazy beers, with a sweet bready aroma, notes of banana and sherbet, and a tart, spicy flavour. It's the breakfast beer of choice in Germany, but it's a great first drink whenever your beer o'clock might be.

Batten down the hatches. Stock up on firewood. Don your dressing gown. Slide into you slippers. Lap the cat. Open this can. Weizenbock is the perfect brew for hunkering down. It translates to strong wheat beer, but there's a lot more to it than that. Malty, rich, full-bodied, and warming, with flavours of Christmas cake, Easter spices and chocolate. Bring on winter.

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.

Dunedin born & brewed.

Be a rebel without much of a cause. This Irish Red Ale makes being a revolutionary easier than ever, thanks to the smooth, clean, dry taste, with hints of chocolate, and red berries. Of course, like any good insurgent, it has an ever-so-slight bitterness, only with a lingering malty finish. But the only uprising that's really necessary is the lifting of the can.

Officially, this is a Mexican-style lager. But you could think of it as a Dunedin Cerveza. A very refreshing beer from a city that could hardly be further south of the border. It's crisp, with a malty backbone, subtle hop flavours, and just a hint of citrus but feel free to add a fresh slice of your own. Now you know what they've always known down there: nothing beats an ice-cold Sunny Day.
