The Rock & Pillar Range looks over the small Otago town of Middlemarch, that Richard Emerson calls home. Here, locals know Richard to be both a pillar of the community, and a rock. Or at least that's what he thinks they mean by pillar. Whatever they may say, his house is always a popular spot for a beer. And this dark ale will be perfect for a bone chilling Strath Taieri night. Rock & Pillar sits somewhere between a brown porter and a stout, robust with rich malt, roasted cocoa, dark chocolate and coffee flavours that are as bittersweet as the local sense of humour.

At 04:17pm, on 22 July 2028, Dunedin's sun will be fully obscured. Only this time, it won't be a cloud that's getting in the way. It will be the first total solar eclipse here, since 1163. To mark this historic, future moment of darkness, a super Bright IPA was brewed. Sunblock was brewed with Eclipse hops (of course), for sweet mandarin orange, zesty citrus peel flavours, and a fresh subtle pine finish. Best enjoyed with your eclipse glasses on. This beer was brewed in collaboration with the astronomy loving friends at Tuhura Otago Museum.

Taieri George is named after the most important Emerson of all - Richard's Dad. Not only was he a founding member of the Taieri Gorge Railway, he was also the brewery's original Chief taster. He particularly enjoyed this drop, brewed with cinnamon, nutmeg and Otago clover honey. In his memory, Emerson's release this brew on his birthday. Here's to you, George.

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.

Full Send was brewed as a collaboration between Epic Beer and AJ Hackett Bungy for the 2026 Smith's New Zealand IPA Challenge in Queenstown. It brings together two brands that have never had much interest in playing it safe. Full Send is a bright, high-impact New Zealand IPA built around Eshcapade - a brand new hop variety from Eggers Hops. Motueka, Riwaka and Nectaron play the supporting chorus, adding lemon-lime zest, tropical lift, and juicy stone fruit depth.
