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.

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.

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.

Just because you don't want a beer, it doesn't mean you don't want a beer. So, Emerson's brewed you a beer. Inspired by the big bold flavours of Bird Dog IPA, but without the bite. Little Bird is an alcohol free IPA, with a deliciously-puritanical, true expression of the hop flavour. It's so tasty, you won't even realise you're not drinking. Until the morning, of course. Dry hopped using New Zealand and USA hops for a super-fresh, super vibrant aroma, with a super-crisp, super-quenching finish.

The aroma is toasty, with a hint of sweetness and some earthy hop notes. Firm-bodied but not heavy, with a creamy texture, the dryish palate is full of roasted malt, coffeeish notes and a sustained bitterness.

Of the 100 billion planets in the universe, only one is known to have beer. So if you are leaving Earth, you'll need to BYO. Lost in Space features an all-American line-up of Azacca, El Dorado and Mosaic hops, making for a rich flavour, with spicy mango, stone fruit and a crisp citrus finish. Don't just drink craft beer, drink spacecraft beer.

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.

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.

Phantom Lords are so misunderstood. Everyone thinks they want to tear your soul out, or claim your firstborn. Take this one. Yes, it does the whole Dark Side thing - black as tar, roasty chocolate notes, but it's also chirpy and hoppy as an American Pale Ale. Turns out Phantom Lords just wanna have fun, then tear your soul out.

This year, the Emerson's Brew Crew went to Clayton Hop Farm on an important mission to harvest a bounty of the freshest Nelson Sauvin hops. And when you pick fresh hops, you get Sticky Digits. Resinous, lupulin covered hands, and a rich, smooth, fresh hop hazy IPA, with grapey, gooseberry, limey flavours. They've got sticky, now it's time for you to get stuck in.

It turns out, Hunterville is a pretty funky place. Home to the first-ever commercial brewer's yeast isolated from the New Zealand wilderness, that goes by the name of Wilding. A funky, fruity farmhouse ale, with a hint of spice, light malt, and a subtle hoppy finish. Froth Technologies approached us asking if we wanted to be involved in this project and we jumped at the opportunity to be the first brewery to use this new, native, commercial beer yeast isolate. This yeast was captured with an air trap on the banks of the Rangitikei River.
