Parrotdog's troublesome original release, named for the problematic first brew day which hugely emphasised its hop bitterness. It's matured and evolved nicely over the years, as has Parrotdog. Big tropical hop flavour from local varieties with strong bitterness from an English hop to honour its origins, all balanced by plenty of malt.

A smooth and full-flavoured stout, with a refined roasted malt character and a hint of chocolate.

When the cliché was coined that dogs are humanity's best friends, it was a Greyhound they had in mind. Whether your plans involve a run or a rest, a greyhound is up for joining in. Parrotdog dedicated their low carb hazy pale ale to them, and kept it fittingly lean and easy-go-ing, with sparkling citrus hop characters, good balance, and a crisp finish.

An ongoing series of occasional one off releases inspired by the nice ideas captured in Parrotdog's Lyall Bay Brewery. Limited Release 26 is a Fresh Hop Hazy IPA brewed with fresh whole cones of trial hop NZH-109 from the NZ Hops Bract Brewing Programme. Intense juicy fruit aromas and flavours of peach, nectarine, tangerine and melon are supported by a smooth, hazy mouthfeel and classic fresh hop resins to finish.

The raptor family includes a surprisingly diverse collection of birds of prey and their kin, and stretches to include some of their fiercer ancestors from the land before time. Pale Ale can feel like a similarly broad category, but this one is very much of the more assertive kind. Deep gold with piercing piney bitterness and citrus hop flavours, it's a throwback to the relatively recent past. A Bright deep gold beer with Orange, grapefruit & pine aroma. Taste of Citrus with a balanced malt depth.

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.

Big tropical aroma and a smooth bitterness defy logic in this non-alcoholic Pale Ale.

Super juicy and tropical with punchy flavours of passionfruit, mango and orange. Real East Coast style in this Sawmill classic.

The people's favourite and the king of lagers. This is a New Zealand style Pilsner - clean, crisp and hoppy with a refreshing bitterness.
