The Chop just won the 2025 Consistency of Excellence Award at the Australian International Beer Awards — earned through three consecutive years of gold medals!

This is a huge win for the entire Hop Nation team — earning a gold medal for our beloved Draught three years in a row is an incredible achievement. With Australia's craft beer scene growing more competitive each year, and so many breweries producing outstanding brews, this recognition means even more.

A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated team and to our loyal customers who continue to support us — we couldn’t have done it without you!

The Chop is our take on a modern IPA, featuring Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe hops. Pouring a bright gold, The Chop carries big citrus notes, finishing with a mild bitterness.
