We’ve dialled down the ABV on our OG Pale Ale. Same hoppy brew, but more session-able than before.

A New Zealand take on an American style Pale Ale, combining big citrus & tropical hop character, medium bitterness and a light yet present malt bill.  Refreshing & crushable!

Ingredients; water, malted barley, hops, yeast

Duncan’s pilsner is a staff favourite and has been with us since our inception in 2014. We’ve given it a well deserved makeover. Same wonderful recipe, new convenient tins!

A New Zealand classic. A crisp dry pilsner, nicely hopped with floral notes of citrus and spice.

Rainier isn’t just a WCIPA, it’s what happens when the Pacific North West Cascade Mountains throw a hop party and invite all their wildest friends; El Dorado, Simcoe, Chinook, Citra, and Cascade. 

Sip it, and taste the madness of the mountains!

Contains: water, malted barley (gluten), hops, wheat (gluten), yeast.

This wild ferment was a Hawkes Bay mission. Broken van, stranded staff, grapes fermenting where they shouldn’t… it nearly broke us. But out of the chaos came something special; a wild sour brimming with funky Brett character, tannish Malbec grapes, and a crisp, clean finish. Proof that hard work (and a little madness) really does pay off.

Contains: water, malted barley (gluten), malbec grapes, wheat (gluten), hops, yeast.

Czech it – We’ve topped our most complex, tedious, and rewarding LoDo pale lager yet. Chills Pils arrives after an awe-inspiring trip to the land of the long white foam – Czechia 🇨🇿. A meticulous water profile copied from the wells of České Budějovice, a freshly international import of the house yeast strain from Budvar National Brewery, and a traditional decoction mash on our definitely-not-fit-for-purpose two-vessel system.
Expect a solid, bready malt character with pronounced hop bitterness and a bold yet refreshing finish. A post-modern take on a traditional classic. Na zdraví!

4.0% - Fruited Peach Lager

A blissful blend of fruit and beer. Super smooth, easy drinking lager, cut with New Zealand peach for a mouth watering fresh fruit flavour. Pure refreshment. Pure Bliss.

A cheeky ‘chilled red’. Born out of the heartbreaking 2023 vintage in Hawkes Bay, Franco is the lighter, textural iteration of our Howell Vineyard Bridge Pa Cabernet Franc.

Still wishing to support our growers and the region during this difficult time, yet understanding that our ‘house’ style of Cabernet Franc would not suffice, we decided to create a delicious, prettier, chilled version (12%) - ‘Franco’. Garnet in colour. Brimming with notes of earthy wild strawberries. The palate is highly textural, and soft, finishing with bucket loads of flavour and warmth. Serve chilled.

Howell Vineyard, Bridge Pa Hawkes Bay. Red metal soils, densly planted with 27 year old vines at 2315 vines /ha.

A very challenging season. A moderate spring and average temperatures for ripening. Several significant rain events occured toward the end of summer, and the wet conditions continued into Autumn.

The fruit was machine harvested and delivered to the winery. It was destemmed into a small open top fermenter. Once fermentation began, naturally, it was innoculated and plunged twice daily. After fermentation finished it remained on skins for a further week prior to being gently pressed off. It remained in both stainless steel and neutral oak for 8 months and was filtered prior to bottling. Bottled unfined.

"Red Mead" is a stunning medium sweet mead and fruit wine (technically melomel). It is made from native honey (including Manuka honey), with the fruitiness of boysenberry and the richness of plum. It can be served at room temperature or chilled. We expect it will make a great Sangria.

Brewed longer to enhance the flavors, this Munich Dunkel-style Lager gives way to a rich flavor and remarkably smooth taste. Modelo Negra contains Water, Barley Malt, Non-malted Cereals and Hops.

GlenDronach is, quite simply, the go to distillery for sherry aged whiskies. This large, imposing Victorian distillery makes whisky to match and some of their single cask offerings are as dark as night and like drinking liquid Xmas pudding and crêpes suzettes.

This is the archetypal 12 year old, aged in ex-oloroso and PX sherry casks. The nose is rich and lifted with honey, caramel, treacle, vanilla sugar and prunes dominating. The palate is rich and rounded with dried fruit, sultanas and milk chocolate. A fantastic all-round whisky and a must for the cabinet at home.

Southern Right is re-defining Pinotage with this intense classically styled, clay-grown wine, packed with complex berry fruit, beautiful tannins and subtle wood spice. Full ripeness and the longer hang-time afforded by cooler sites, combined with the complex, more classic fruit aromas and structure resulting from clay-rich soil, make this wine a highly individual expression of South Africa?s unique grape variety.

Tornatore’s Etna Rosso is a medium-bodied Sicilian wine with beautiful personality, aromas of wild berries, black cherries and spices, and a full, savory and juicy mouthfeel. It matures for about 12 months in large barrels and is characterized by excellent value for money.

Vinification
Grapes harvested by hand in small crates are brought quickly to the winery and undergo manual selection on a belt. De-stemmed and not totally crushed, they are sent to concrete tanks, where they macerate for about 10/12 days at a temperature of 22/25°C. Once fermentation is finished, the grapes are left to macerate for a few more days after which they are racked and pressed using a traditional vertical press.

Organoleptic Characteristics
Light ruby red with faint purplish reflections they, typical of the variety that is not very rich in color. Hints of small red fruits, morello cherry, black cherry are evident on the nose. The palate is distinguished by its typical balanced tannicity and surprising fullness, savoriness and length.

Fabulous Pinot Noir with amazing depth of flavour especially at this price; a wine that really puts Marlborough's best foot forward thanks to winemaker Rebecca Salmond, who sources grapes from the region's Southern Valleys. Flavours are of ripe cherry, blackberry and spice lead into a lovely, elegant yet weighty palate with superb fruit ripeness and intensity. This wine will continue to age for two years plus and pairs well with lighter red meat dishes.

Briottet's Mandarine liqueur is made from mandarin distillate. The zest of the fruit offers an intense and pure flavour. Extra-fine white sugar is added in order to create a fine liqueur which reveals all the subtlety of the fruit.

La Rousse is an intense, triple-malt amber beer, full of contrasts. The first impression is full bodied and malty, followed by sweeter notes of caramel and roast almonds with a fruity finish.
