Emerson's Brewers Reserve on tap at Atlas

Better than the Double Down...

We currently have the Emerson's Vertumnus Brewers Reserve on tap. 
The beer is named after Vertumus who is the Roman god of the seasons, and change also gardens and fruit trees and change is the theme of this awesome pilsner.  The brewing team at at Emerson's took their favourite pilsner and swapped all the NZ hops for American ones. The beer has also been dry-hopped making it bitter, crisp and aromatic. 

And, Emersons reckon it's "the best thing that should have come out of America since triple bacon burgers and the Double Down"! 

Emerson's Vertumnus Brewers Reserve | 6% | $9 pint

Checking in with the Atlas Athletes - Alanna

Alanna (right) enjoys one of her podium finishes

We were stoked to be one of Alanna Columb's sponsors for her Northern Hemisphere 2013 season. It was Alanna's first time racing in European and World Cup events and she scored some solid results in what was her inaugural season - and she hasn't even been riding downhill for that long!


Hello Alanna, how are you?

I'm really well, thank you!


Give us a little summary of your European Season. 

So I left NZ in the middle of May. First stop was the UK with my first race being in Scotland at Fort William. I then continued on throughout Europe, I entered a total of 12 races, a mixture of European and World Cup events and visited over ten different countries. Finishing up in Austria for my last race. I was based mostly in Morzine in France. I enjoyed Morzine - it's a great place with loads of options for riding. We had a bit of gypsy camp going on in the car park of the supermarket below the gondola!


So this was your first competitive Down Hill season, what was your highlight of the tour?

I've thought about this question for a while and not one thing pops up. The whole experience was pretty eye opening! I reckon if I have to say - the highlight of my tour was standing on the podium with Rachel Atherton (world champ) and Myriam Nicole, who was third overall at last year's World Cup. It was pretty cool to stand up there in my jeans and jandals with only two sponsors, Off Road Adventures and Atlas.


What was the low point of your tour?

Towards the end of my trip I ended up getting injured and not qualifying for a World Cup race - that wasn't too fun.


What's the vibe like on the DH race circuit? Is their a feeling of camaraderie or is it each rider to their own?

As it's an individual sport we all want to win - so I guess it's natural there's a bit of competition between us all. But on the whole everyone's really cool and it's a good vibe on tour.


Which was your favourite place to race and why?

Andorra! Without a doubt, the tracks were amazing there!


What's up next for Alanna Columb?

Home to work, save and train hard - ready for next year!


So, your stranded on a desert island you're allowed to take a food item, a luxury item and one album with you. What would they be?

Let's go with chocolate, a hammock and Florence and the Machine's Ceremonials.
