At the glitteringly snazzy
2014 Brewers’ Guild of New
Zealand Beer Awards held
in Wellington this August,
Richard Emerson, the
“Godfather of the Kiwi craft
beer scene” was named an
Honorary Fellow of the Guild.
Richard
Emerson
From the opening of the
first Emerson’s Brewery in
1992, Richard Emerson has
always been an innovator,
a dreamer, a bit of a mad
scientist and thank god for
that; because this has led
him to ferment some of New
Zealand’s most iconic beers.
Richard says: “It seems
like yesterday that I was
making a mess in Mum’s
kitchen with my first brew
kit, this is a huge honour and
I am really humbled by it.”
Awww. Now we know it’s
been a while since Craftology
has been in contact with
you all but your patience
will be rewarded. We’re
chock full of news that’s
a blend of the sublime and
ridiculous and make sure you

Massive Craftology congratulations must go out to
Nelson based Townshend Brewery, which was named
New Zealand’s Champion Brewery at the 2014 Brewers’
Guild of New Zealand Beer Awards.
Townshend’s beat stiff competition, with a record 670
beers entered from 84 breweries across 15 different
categories this year. In total, 74 New Zealand breweries
entered the awards. Phew!
Founder and brewer, Martin Townshend was more than
lost for words, he didn’t actually show up to the event!
Instead he’d hopped on a plane back home to Nelson
earlier that day not for a minute thinking that he’d be in
with a chance to win the big gong.
Founded in 2005, Townshend Brewery remains a oneman operation, producing approximately 50,000 litres
of beer per year. The 650 litre brewery is located at the
Townshend family home in Rosedale, near Nelson.

NEW CRAFT BEER BAR
FOR NORTH WHARF
Auckland beer connoisseurs now have a new spot
where they can enjoy tasty local brews carefully
selected by craft beer aficionados Andrew Ranum
and Matthew Kelly. Located in the waterfront locale of the
Wynyard Quarter, this new Free House is called 16 TUN in
homage to the vessel used in the early stages of brewing
as well as being a historical term for a large beer cask and
a measure of capacity. There you go – take that to your
next pub quiz. The 16 TUN kitchen (run by head chef James
Balakrishnan) whips out paua fritters, burgers, ribs and all
sorts of salubriousness in “half tun” and “full tun” portions.

What do Dunedin and
Emerson
Perth have in common?
Bugger all – except they’re
both home to a couple of crazy-good cult
breweries. WA-based Little Creatures Brewery challenged
local lads at Emerson’s to create a ’Red Rye Ale’ with
Oz hops (something Emerson’s have never done) while
Emerson’s have challenged the Creatures to craft a ‘Saison’
(a style quite unfamiliar to the Aussie team). Check out

of his beer container. Speaking to
local newspaper The Chronicle,
Chinaka said: “I could smell a

C!tra Double IPA
500ml 6.0% ABV
650ml 8.0% ABV
650ml 9.0% ABV
One sip of this amber awesomeness
is all it’ll take for you to realise why it
scored a gold medal at the Brewer’s
Guild Awards this year. Bright and
bronze in the glass, it boasts bold,
hoppy aromas and clean, precise
bitterness all the result of 100%
American hops being used in the
brew. That’s a big ten-four on the
citrus, pine and magic malty flavours.
They grow their own hops at Rogue
Farm in Oregon, and seven of them
are stuffed into this fluffy, foamyheaded brew. Bright orange and
bursting with grapefruit bitterness, big
tropical mango tones, splashes of pine
and grassiness which are followed by
gentle malty flavours on the finish.
She’s a nicely balanced beer indeed.
Saying that brewer Joseph Wood is
a tad fond of American hops is like
saying that you only watch cat videos
on the net ‘occasionally’. Obsessed is
more the word and C!tra is his most
renowned beer. It’s packed to bursting
with massive lemony, piney, resinlike Citra hops on the nose, loads
of tropical tangy-ness and a solid,
biscuit-malt finish. Plus it has intense
bitter badassness on the finish.

Brewed using 100% Aussie-grown
barley and wheat and dry-hopped
with Galaxy hops. Un-filtered &
un-pasteurised, this is a super-fruity,
crisp and complex beer with a hint of
saltiness on the finish, that has
‘reward yourself after mowing the
lawns’ written all over it. The yeast
drops to the bottom of the bottle over
time so the brewers recommend you
give the bottle a gentle roll or tip it
upside down before opening it to
rouse the yeast and mix it up.
What started out as a thirty litre trial
brew in 2013, has now morphed into
a double dry-hopped harbinger of
hopnosis that will definitely clear
the nose and soothe the throat. Big
on tropical fruit, grapes, citrus, pine
and resin flavours, boldly bitter and
textural on the finish. Niceness in a can.
With it’s beautiful, creamy foam and
perfectly tuned, biscuity malt and
piney hop aromas, it’s hard to tear it
away from your nose for long enough
to sip! Smooth and velvety in the
mouth, it’s rich, yet cooling, crisp and
lipsmackingly bitter on the finish.

Q What’s the biggest selling
8-Wired beer?
ince up-sticking from
Blenheim earlier this year,
Soren & Monique Eriksen of
8-Wired are brewing their little
hearts out at a million miles an
hour at their new premises in
Warkworth. We thought it was
timely we ask Soren some hardhitting questions:
A Hopwired IPA. People like hops
and this was one of the first, new
world New Zealand IPAs.
Q Do you have a famous customer
or celebrity fan?
A Not sure, but rumour has it
Q What are some of the challenges
Queen Elizabeth enjoys a good
nightcap of iStout…
in creating consistent supply of
good 8-Wired beer?
A Being a contract brewer (for
a few more months), brewing at
multiple breweries, it is always tricky
to arrange logistics and moving beer
and ingredients around the country.
Q Which one of your beers do you
always turn to in times of crisis?
A That depends on the type of
crisis! Lately, Superconductor has
been a go to. Q Tell us your favourite beer and
food match - or recipe featuring beer
as an ingredient?
A iStout float (Vanilla icecream
floated in a glass of iStout). This is
both a food match and beer as an
ingredient I guess!
Q If you weren’t running a brewery
what do you think you’d be doing
with your life?
Q Which kiwi craft brewers do you
think are doing great things at the
moment?
A Honestly, the whole industry is
getting better at what we do. In the
last year I have probably been most
impressed with Panhead, Garage
Project and of course Champion
brewer Martin Townshend. It is
great to be a part of such an exciting
industry.
Q Is it a tricky business being a
husband and wife brewing team?
A It certainly has its pros and
cons...:) It can be hard to switch off at
times but it also provides flexibility.
We are pleased our two preschoolers
will have the experience of growing
up within a family business.
Q If you could visit a brewery
anywhere in the world where would
it be?
A Russian River in California, one of
my favorite places on earth. Unless
of course there is a brewery in
Antarctica, I have always wanted to
go there.
Q What’s the best thing about
moving to your new location?
A Getting space to make our
own mess and moving the whole
operation under one roof so we
have more control of all steps of the
process both in terms of brewing
and logistics.
A We both started working for
others within different career paths;
me in Biochemistry and Monique
in Physiotherapy, but we were not
entirely satisfied. If we hadn’t have
leapt into the craft beer world, we
would probably have been running
some other kind of business. I think
the urge for independence would
have driven us to it sooner or later.

It took 287 canny investors just 18
days and 7 hours to hit the funding
cap of $700,000 and secure their
own slice of Renaissance Brewing in
Blenheim via www.snowballeffect.co.nz.
They’re the first company in New
Zealand to crowdfund for equity
– and the offer has clearly been a
hit. This cash injection will mean
founders Brian Thiel and Andy
Deuchars will be able to do the things
they need to do to reach out and
touch people and grow their business
here and overseas. PLUS kiwi CRAFT, (a Kickstarter
project to publish a definitive digital

beer), reached its funding goal last
month and will now be a reality.

2014, profiling the beers made by

Yeastie Boys
Tony Dapson
Tony Dapson is a brewer based in
Hawke’s Bay who wants to brew
Manuka Magic - an ale that uses
Manuka instead of traditional hops.
“Hops are becoming harder to
source due to high demand and the
increasing threat of climate change,”
he says. Manuka on the other hand,
thrives in wild, rugged parts of New
Zealand and it’s cropped much like
the tea plant, so it’s not destroyed
during harvest. It grows quickly, is
environmentally friendly, sustainable,
and climate hardy. “Manuka can
easily cope with world demand,”
says Tony, who adds it makes a good
case to develop Manuka as a parallel
ingredient to hops in beer brewing.
Help him give it a decent crack by
contributing to his crowd funding
campaign on www.rockethub.com.
and FINALLY Yeastie Boys got in on
the crowdfunding caper by brewing
a teal-coloured beer specifically
for the launch of PledgeMe.co.nz’s
equity crowdfunding arm. “It’s a great
business and one that I expect will
have a brewery or two raising money
through it in the next couple of years.

Invercargill Brewery has officially fired

the brewery soon moved into the site

before beginning the transition to
larger premises last December.
“It’s good to have the whole team
back in one building,” says Steve,
“there’s been lots of to-ing and froing, and typically the thing that you
wanted was always at the
other site”. In addition to

Hop Zombie
Double IPA
8.8% ABV, 330ml
8.5% ABV, 500ml
This is a beer designed
to develop in the bottle
according to Ben, and if the
2012 version which the judges
tasted was anything to go by,
then he’s right on the money.
Boasting beautiful toffee,
caramel and creamy biscuit
characters, it is also holding
its freshness well and the rich
malt profile masks the alcohol
nicely. Smooth and saucy.
If you’re looking for an ultrazesty, citrus-laden brew with
staying power then this is it.
Aromatically over-the-top but
beautifully balanced in the
mouth in terms of fresh hops
and finely tuned malt, this
IPA has it all going on. All the
components are in harmony
yet it leaves a powerful
impression.

This is an oak-aged black rye
and barley wine with real heft
and bitterness behind it. Our
judges all believed this beer
would be a prime contender
to age well as it appeared very
youthful now. With chocolate
and toffee on the nose, a
nutty, bourbon-like layer
in the mouth and a rich,
biscuity finish.
Straight away the russet red
colour is gorgeous. With
a big spruce nose, precise
bitterness and lovely clean
merging of hops and malts
this is a lip-smackingly good,
ultimately drinkable beer.

THE LAST WORD
GINGER NINJAS
Everywhere you turn right now
there’s someone doing something
nifty with ginger. Wigram Brewing
in Christchurch have added
to their seasonal range the
Ginger Jerry a wheat beer (or
Wit Bier) infused with ginger,
honey and lemon – it’ll clear the nose
and soothe the throat.
Hawke’s Bay Independent Breweries
are fizzing over their Ginger Fusion,
an alcoholic ginger beer tweaked with
fresh mandarin, which is splashed
with spice. The talented team at
Harrington’s Brewery have embraced
their inner Royal with the Prince
Harry, a ginger beer given a 4.8% ABV
tickle-up worthy of any polo match
or spa-pool skinny-dip. And Speight’s
have also just released their very own
pimped-up ginger beer in a 330ml
bottle, which is super-tasty if you drink
it, but also the business as a marinade
for pork shoulder or sticky ribs on the
BBQ. Crafty Trout Brewery in Taupo
has just released a zero-alcohol ginger
beer called SMOKEY “We’ve smoked
the ginger with Pohutukawa and
Cherrywood and also added honey
and lemons” says Rebecca Romirer.
“It’s great on its own, or with bourbon”.
East Imperial, (the people who bought
us a new take on tonic) have just
released a beer inspired by stories of
the original Mombosa Ginger Beer
plant that’s brewed naturally using
a blend of gingers from East Africa
and Asia. Mix with 30ml vodka and a
squeeze of lime for a magic Moscow
Mule. So there you go.
“I got ninety nine problems
buta beerain’t one…”
A Texas brewery has eschewed
the traditional six-pack of beer
and released a mighty, seven foot
long 99-pack for a simple US$99.
Austin Beerworks released 20 of
the monster packs as part of a
social media campaign for its new
Peacemaker Anytime Ale but it has
proved so popular that the brewery
is going to produce more to ensure
they last for the duration of the
campaign.
Brewery founder, Michael Graham,
explained that the idea behind the
99-pack started out as a joke with
the design company – “waiting in
line for a BBQ”, “when the fish aren’t
biting” etc – but realised there were
so many instances that maybe it
wasn’t a bad idea
after all.
“This inspired
us to create the
world’s first and
only 99-pack,”
said Graham.
“What started out
as a joke became
very real when
we realized how
much people
love the idea of 99 beers for $99.99.”
Yet the level of enthusiasm for the
brew has surprised even Graham. He
told CBS: “It’s really impractical. We
conceived it just to be silly.
“I guess we underestimated the
power of a stupid idea.”
It’s lucky that most cars are big in
the US, because as at seven feet long
and weighing 82 pounds, it’s not
the sort of slab one can fit into your
