Craft Beer - House of Nicholas Inaugural Brew - Sarah IPA - Brew Day - Fresh Hops NZ
- Luke & Simon picking fresh hops and brewing of Sarah Nicholas IPA (India Pale Ale). Luke Nicholas of Epic Brewing Company and Simon Nicholas of Hop Federation get together for a collaborative brew using fresh hops from a hop farm in Riwaka, New Zealand. The beer was brewed at Hop Federation in Riwaka, and the hops picked on Fry's Farm. This brew is in honour of Luke & Simon's common ancestor from the 1700's Sarah Nicholas. For the ingredients a mix of UK and New Zealand malt and hops were used.

Tuatara | Mot Eureka NZ Pilsner | New Zealand Craft Beer Review
Second beer from my travels in NZ and it just had to be an NZ pilsner. Whereas US hops seem to dominate the flavour in pilsners, NZ hops meet in beautiful harmony with the dry, malty deliciousness that we all enjoy in a well brewed lager.

Tasting New Zealand Pale Ale
October 15, 2014 - I give the New Zealand Pale Ale a taste. The hops, which were part of the winnings from a Grant Baker sub appreciation contest, are mostly Riwaka with some Motueka. It's a blend I will definitely do again.
Super Cheers to you for reading this, (does anyone, haha?) and Super Cheers to Grant Baker for having an awesome contest! I bet you already sub to him, but if you don't, please go check out Grant's youtube channel. Good dude. Cheers!!

Award cements brewer's place in the heart of hop country: RNZ Checkpoint
A lager made by Hop Federation, a small craft brewery in Riwaka, has been named the overall champion lager in New World's beer and cider awards, beating out big names like Steinlager and Heineken.
Beer review - Tubedinoz Rakau Welch Red Ale
An interesting showcase of the Rakau hop. Combined with the raisiny quality of the Shepherds delight malt, the hop's peppery and melon flavours gave a distinct impression of sherry or port both in the aroma and the taste. Bitterness was moderate but left a distinct coating on the tongue. A unique and satisfying red ale, cheers!
