Heritage Range

Old Dark

If you’re looking for a beer with a big creamy flavour you’ve come to the right place.

5 malt old dark was introduced into the Speight’s range in 1992 to meet consumer demands for the classic ‘dark’ beer. No prizes for guessing why it got its name. By carefully selecting, roasting and matching 5 separate malts we have crafted a dark beer that gives rich, creamy, chocolate fudge flavours swiftly followed by coffee overtones. Perfect for warming the cockles on a stormy night.

Best drunk with some fine New Zealand cheeses or chocolate desserts.

Marlborough's Renaissance has had a cracking year taking out both the Champion Brewery Award at the NZ Beer Awards and Champion Small Brewery Award in Australia. Stonecutter is their flagship combining a rich complex caramel and coffee malt character with a hint of peat smoke, and a raisin and marmalade fruitiness. Stonecutter is every bit the match to a charred steak off the barbecue.

Tasting Note: Harmonic Haze Machine pours a glowing, hazy golden hue with a soft, pillowy body that feels like weather you can drink. The aroma pulseswith bright citrus, soft stonefruit, and a gentle tropical life, while the palate delivers smooth waves of juicy fruit wrapped in a silky haze. The finish is balanced, seamless, and almost weightless. Smooth, hazy, and ridiculously easy to sink into.

Diminutive. So demure. But Itsy Bitsy keeps the party poppin’ with a low alc profile & big flavour. Even if you don’t care how much booze is in the beer, you can’t go wrong. It’s session-able on its own or perfect with anything on your plate. A German Leichtbier at heart, this one.

 Queenstown’s summer obsession is back - and it’s blushing harder than ever.
After its smash-hit trial two summers ago, Alta Fresca returns with a vibrant pink glow, pouring like liquid sunset over ice. Juicy ripe strawberry bursts first, chased by a zesty lime snap, all wrapped in crisp white grape and a dry, spritzy fizz that quenches deeper than any beer ever could. It’s not just a drink — it’s a vibe.

Panhead - Hops are where it starts for the born-again craft head and Supercharger APA is where Panhead delivers. This is an all-American show with Centennial, Citra and Simcoe overwhelming your nose, kicking you in the taste buds and departing with more bitterness than a Palm Springs divorce. It's a seriously addictive combination.

SAN NICOLÁS,
STRONG SPICED ALE 8%

We’re back with our mates at Apostle, this time to drop a proper holiday banger! San Nicolás is a strong spiced ale loaded with cherry, cranberry, orange, and a dash of festive spice, all wrapped up in a rich, boozy malt base. Ho ho ho indeed.

VULCAN IMPERIAL CHILI PILSNER 6.2% ABV

FORGET ABOUT TONGUE SCORCHING HEAT; THIS BREW IS ALL ABOUT THAT HABANERO SOUL WITHOUT VOLCANIC BURN. WE’VE BLENDED NELSON SAUVIN AND KRUSH HOPS TO DISH UP A CRACKING MIX OF GOOSEBERRY AND TROPICAL VIBES THAT PLAY PERFECTLY WITH THE HABANERO’S FRUITY PROFILE. IT’S A FLAVOUR BOMB WITH A PUNCHY SPICY BITE.

Wakachangi Lager. An easy drinking lager with a good indoor outdoor flow, the perfect beer with a kiwi twist, an Otago beer with north Canterbury flavours, brewed near Nelson by a west coaster with the ol' misty waters of the Waikato. Wakachangi - quite nice beer!
