Welcome, NAME!
Our quaffable, classic English Style Brown Porter. With a face like that on the label, it’s gotta be good. Cheers to Captain Black Lips! Malts: Maris Otter, Chocolate and Crystal
This coffee stout is a must for coffee-lovers! A big, bold, black as night stout with a tan head. Flavours include dark plum, chocolate and of course a massive hit of coffee from the Black Shag Coffee Boutique cafe.
An aromatic profile of elderflower, grapefruit, and passionfruit, complemented by herbal notes and underlying stonefruit. On the palate, it is full-bodied and finely textured with a flinty edge, a touch of vanilla richness from oak, and a persistent finish.
Up in the Winterless north we can grow super flavoursome Limes and Lemons, so we've taken some juice and zest and created our Acid Drop cider. It kind of reminds us of a combination of Limoncello and Prosecco. Zingy, refreshing and perfect to sip in the sun - A Festival Favourite!
We have a great beekeeper friend who supplies us with sweet Puhoi bush honey. This cider has a whole new Buzz of floral fragrance and flavour. You will do your own little waggle dance after enjoying a couple of these. Perfect whether you are a worker – or a Queen! SILVER MEDAL 2024
This is a bit of a flavour blindcider – who knew Cider could take you back to Nana’s baking or breakfast on a crisp winter’s morning? Warning: this beverage is very high in Ciderness yummy factor. Its a touch sweeter with the Oats giving a rich biscuity maltiness, while the lingering flavour of the cinnamon will have you back for another dram!
Take some Northland Tamarillos, a sprinkling of Amarillo Hops from California and mix them with our spritzy organic cider. It seems a bit crazy, but the savoury character of the tamarillo compliments the tropical citrus notes of the Hops. The Tamarillo also gives this cider a beautiful crimson colour. A beverage you won’t experience every day.
Going Natural never tasted so good! We have harvested happiness with this freshly pressed organically grown apple cider. This is a real deal, clean green drop, showcasing the vibrancy and freshness of chemical free farming and brewing. Crisp Granny Smith, fruity Braeburn and sweet Fuli apples come together to create the perfect flavour profile in this invigoratingly bold Cider, come over and get your natural on!
There’s something pretty amazing about the flavour combination of crisp organic apples, rich velvety berries, and creamy vanilla oak. We like to call this one our Firecider, if you know what we mean. Combine the intriguing gooseberry and passion fruit flavours of South Canterbury Blackcurrants, together with hints of creamy vanilla and rose, settle back into that Velvet armchair by the fire and enjoy.

A bright pinky/ purple, and loaded with delicious berry character. Tart, fruity, a flavour bomb.
A refreshing twist on the Bramble cocktail. This gin-inspired spritz is made with juicy raspberries, blackberries, juniper berries and a hint of lemon.

Good things take time & after 6 weeks of lagering, a clean crisp Pilsner delivers flavours that will keep you comming back for more.
Bright-Eyed is the beer for those who like their beers hazy and their morning clear. This subtly bitter brew is bursting with tropical bangers of pineapple, mango and citrus on the nose, finishing light like your next day regrets. The ultimate beer to keep you bright-eyed and bushy tailed.
This APA has a golden shade of orange with a bright white head. The aroma is fruity, citrus and hints of passionfruit. This is a very easy drinking full flavoured tropical fruit pale ale.
Last years Dunedin Craft Beer Festival Emerging Brewers Competition winner Andrew Leitch's winning Blackcurrant cider.
A classic German style helles lager with a citrusy modern Kiwi twist. A solid bready backbone is accented with Garston hops and Canyon grown malt. Taste the terroir as you rip into a Central Otago lager.
A cloudy mystery, as adventurous as a Kiwi summer. Brewed with Nectaron and Motueka hops.
