The beer that built a brewery. This is an all NZ hopped English style IPA where the ABV is lower and the malt presence is higher than other more modern counterparts. Orange brown pour with a dense white head and a medley of NZ hop aromas. Some caramel meldanoidins back up this aroma and deliver the toasty, malty palate of the english style. Medium to full body with an assertive bitterness.

Pilsner

5.0% – 330ml

Our Pilsner is brewed with soft Waitakere water, German Pilsner malt and Motueka hops, then fermented with a classic Bavarian lager yeast. This Pilsner offers firm bitterness up front, followed by lemon/lime notes from the hops, and leading through to a refreshingly dry finish.

A classic Czech lager from the heart of the Žatec hop region. Ležák is a crisp, light, and perfectly balanced beer with a pleasant hoppy note.

Crisp and clean like a snowball to the face is how we describe our pilsner. Different to classic European pilsners but with the heritage of all imported malts to create that signature flavour and mouthfeel. Called an NZ pilsner as it is hopped with all NZ varieties that scream to be shown, the riwaka and nelson sauvin show a medly of grape and passionfruit with a lime zing. Light to medium bodied with the creamy mouthfeel of well brewed german malts and a crisp refreshing bitterness to quench the thirst. Winner of a gold medal at 2021 brewers guild awards.

Sunshine Brewing -Brewed for those wanting bigger flavour, Green has found a cult following amongst locals – and for good reason. Dry and crisp like a Gisborne summer, big citrusy hops play against each other in every flavoursome drop.

6.4% - Ruby Red IPA

We’re all at sea for this edition of our hop forward, tattoo inspired ‘Toughie Sticker’ series. Devil to Pay Red IPA. Chest loads of Chinook, Citra, Centennial and Amarillo hops and a carefully selected malt grist creates a luscious rubescent beer awash with pine resin and pink grapefruit. Get inked!

Our Märzen is a celebration of malt depth and balance, pouring a warm amber hue with inviting aromas of toasted bread. On the palate, rich malt sweetness meets hints of honey and biscuit, delivering a smooth, medium-bodied lager that’s both comforting and undeniably moreish.

For the fourth edition of the Haze of the People series, we once again put the decision in your hands – this time asking the public to choose the hops that would make the cut. The result? A globe-trotting line-up of NZH-106, Saphir, Citra and Vic Secret, coming together from New Zealand, Germany, the USA and Australia. With such a far-flung selection, the name for this hazy adventure practically wrote itself: 'Four on Tour'.

Harvest Pilsner™; a beer that tells a tale of sixty seasons, of bines grown big and tall, of countless hop cones brewed, and of the hundreds of hands involved in bringing you the freshest flavour year after year. This is more than just a fresh hop beer, Harvest Pilsner™ is a true taste of a moment in time.

This year’s harvest marks the fifteenth anniversary of our multi-award-winning fresh hop pilsner. For 2025, it’s been carefully crafted with local Riwaka™ and Motueka™ hops from the Tasman region, hand-selected, collected, and raced back to the brewery by our Master Brewer, Tracy Banner. They lend exquisite and more-ish notes of mixed citrus and tropical fruit, a pleasant sweetness and a bright, resinous note. These are balanced against a rock-solid foundation of a crisp, dry, and quite frankly terrific pilsner.

Crisp and hoppy New Zealand Pilsner.

"Sick as, bruh" meant something different for New Plymouth's surfers back in the day. It was probably what they were telling their General Practitioner after paddling through the proverbial let go from the town's 'revolutionary' sewerage system installed in 1933. Thankfully, things have been cleaned up since then, allowing for a much more refreshing ocean experience at the surf break known as 'Bogworks', located directly outside our Brewery. A combination of clean, light malts and crisp Riwaka hops make this New Zealand Pilsner the perfect way to cap off a day catching the big ones.
