Pilsner Urquell’s signature flavour balances sweetness from the triple-decocted malt, and bitterness from our Saaz hops. The thick head of dense wet foam adds smoothness and seals in flavour and aroma.

In every sip of Pilsner Urquell you’ll notice a refreshing crispness from natural carbonation, then subtle caramel tones and a clean finish with a pleasing hoppy bitterness

generously hopped Pilsner takes the Bohemian style of aromatic lager and reforms it with a generous dose of Nelson grown hops. Citrus, spice and tropical fruit float over a sweet malt base before a firm bitter finale. A revelation of Kiwi ingenuity

5% ABV.

this is a classic Paderborn Pilsener. 

The strong golden yellow color, combined with a white fine-pored foam crown make you want to taste this typical hearty Westphalian beer. Brewed with a particularly soft brewing water and carefully selected hop varieties, they give an original taste.

If the sky is clear and cool, and you’re very lucky, you might witness a sundog: apparitions that accompany the true sun, an atmospheric trick of light and ice. Our own Sundog, a pilsner starring the vivid passionfruit and white wine notes of New Zealand hops, is much easier to find, but just as crisp and bright.

Sake bomb, Sake bomb, sake bomb...hey. Following our well received collab with ZenKuro sake brewery in 2019 we have teamed up again, this time with a different approach. Sake bomb beer in one neat package...Not quite - but we have brewed a beautiful golden pilsner with locally grown southland hops and then re-fermented it with sake kasu (rice starch by product of sake production). Making a lovely easy going beer that pairs well with Japanese food and contains subtle aromas of rice wine matched with stonefruit. Just remember your chant before drinking!

Northland Chili Pils is flexible. Rain or shine, it's drinkable. Big meaty koura right off the grill or simple mac-n-cheese, it's a go-to.

When is NZ Pilsner actually a Pilsner? When it’s Sea Spray Dry-hopped Pilsner! Brewed like a proper pilsner but macrodosed (in whirlpool and dry-hopping) with Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin. This makes for a lean, crisp, lager base with big, green, dank oily notes backed with delicate passionfruit for a clean, dry smashable beer with enough bitterness to keep you coming back for more.

5.3% ABV.

Jeremiah was a bullfrog. Was a good friend of mine. I never understood a single word he said. But I helped him a-drink his pint. A classic NZ-hopped imperial pilsner with an aromatic dry hop from heavyweights Riwaka & Motueka, and a touch of Nelson Sauvin, Jeremiah brings a refreshing balance of citrus lime & subtle passionfruit notes.

Our multi-award winning Best Bitter now part of the Sprig + Fern Brewing Co. core range of beers – try it once and you’ll soon see why it’s sticking around!

This well-known English-style beer has earned it’s stripes as a hoppier, and therefore more bitter counterpart to the typically mild pale ales of its time. It’s notched a few medals along the way, too:

2023: GOLD – Australian International Beer Awards, Highly Commended – New World Beer & Cider Awards

2016: Best British Ale – Brewers Guild of New Zealand Beer Awards

Our Best Bitter blends five speciality malts to give the ideal balance of sweetness, providing well rounded toffee and biscuit characteristics. This is in combination with just the right amount of hops to accent the bitterness, and give a fruity, earthy aroma without dominating this malt-driven beer.

Amber in colour, bitter yet smooth in flavour, and malty in finish, the award-winning Best Bitter is one not to miss! Available in 440ml cans and 1.25L riggers – as well as on tap at all Sprig + Fern Taverns.
