Word from Oli:
Garage Project 2026 drops have landed at Craft Metropolis ahead of the Bank Holiday weekend and this is one of the wildest mixed line-ups we’ve seen from the Wellington legends. Big haze? Yep, of course. Funky spontaneous fermentation stuff? OH YES. And…wait for it…
…A SPICY PICKLE SOUR.
Yep. You read that correctly. Salty, tangy, spicy, lip-smacking insanity in a can. It sounds completely unhinged and somehow absolutely works. Like drinking the world’s most muddled up deli sandwich while someone pelts you with limes. I’m are obsessed, move over Spicy Margs a new player has entered the game!
But don’t panic hop heads — there’s plenty of the good green stuff too. Garage are still flexing ridiculously hard on the hoppy front with fresh hazy , soft bodies, mega saturation and enough Nelson Sauvin to make your fridge smell like a vineyard exploded.
And then…there’s the spontaneous fermentation beers.
These are proper beautiful wild things. Tart, funky, elegant and layered with all that earthy barnyard complexity that Garage do so well. Think lemon zest, white wine vibes, soft oak, farmhouse funk and that mouthwatering acidity that makes you immediately go back in for another sip even while your brain is still processing the first one.
Honestly this whole drop is peak Garage Project energy — weird, clever, delicious and completely unconcerned with behaving normally.
