From NZ's first dedicated non-alcoholic craft brewery, State of Play is brewed in the sunny Hawkes Bay using New Zealand hops and Canterbury malt to create a full flavoured IPA. 

Using a special yeast, this beer is naturally brewed, retaining all the flavour while only producing a tiny amount of alcohol that is less than 0.5% ABV.

Crack open a can and enjoy some hoppy goodness today!

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.

Sunbreaker Ale Zero* is a world first zero.
After months of trial the new brew has the signature State of Play full body and finish, fused with the ingredients of the ultimate sunny day elixir. Ginger adds some heat up front, Honey for a warm glow and the Lime cuts through letting all the flavours shine. So if you are looking to brighten up your day, or BYO sunshine at the next midwinter BBQ this is the perfect brew. The beer is brewed 100% naturally using a yeast that fully ferments and creates the beer flavour you want without the alcohol*. The natural Ginger, Honey and Lime is added at the end of the process, then pasteurised to lock in all the flavour. So now Kiwis have a choice – a wonderfully balanced IPA for all day refreshment, a hoptastic Nectaron unfiltered Pale Aleto satisfy a crafty urge and now a brew packed full of sunshine – Sunbreaker Ale.

"Terrible Lizards IPA, much like Jurassic Park, is a spectacle of special effects and big flavour. Bold grapefruit and sweet fruit notes, the hop blend of Mosaic and Cascade offers something you can really sink your teeth into."

The adventure doesn’t have to end when you get home. Day Tripper is a low carb beer that’s as intrepid as you are. Brewed with a combination of hop pellets and hop oil, for better mouthfeel, balance, fruitiness, and complexity. It’s more than just a post-activity refresher, it’s a flavour journey all of its own — from tangelo base camp, all the way to a crisp, stone fruit finish line. Enjoy the trip.

Grapefruit Satellite, Hazy IPA 6%

Grapefruit Satellite is a transcontinental hazy that takes you on a journey out of this world. A smooth and juicy East Coast Hazy meets resinous and pithy West Coast hops. White grapefruit adds a luscious burst of citrus and zest.

A silky and full stout from one of the fastest growing local craft beer breweries Panhead. They've specially imported caramelized oats to give this stout body and texture, it's big but balanced as is generally the case with anything from Panhead.

5.5% ABV.

A New Zealand interpretation of an Old English classic.  Our Milk Stout contains a non-fermentable lactose sugar derived from milk.  Deep black and full bodied with mocha and milk chocolate aromatics, it is smooth with a slightly sweet, balanced finish.

Hops have taken over the world. Permeated the senses of the minions. Hop Zombies now roam the streets. Lupulin ichor oozing from ravaged legions. Gorging, gouging, masticating. Salivating over insane hop flavours and aromas. The time is nigh. No more festering away in hopless oblicion. Join the Hop Zombie Revolution.

8.5% ABV.

Brave Brewing - A 'Feel Good' Golden Ale that pairs well with a bright sunny day.  Brewed with Canterbury wheat and barley malts, it employs a neutral yeast strain for a clean, crisp finish.  Low on bitterness, but packed with plenty of fruity hop character.  Stay Gold!

Life's too short to take the motorway. Enjoy your journey and always take the Scenic Route. This NZ IPA is like a long drive along the west coast, beautiful and classically Kiwi with clean green pungent hop aromas. A clear gold pour takes you to a clean maltiness and a smooth palate with a mild bitterness to round off the journey.

Stripped back, pared down, ready for action, Leaner Cold IPA is ale-meets-lager, a beer at its fighting weight with a brush of Simcoe & Citra. Fermented & dry-hopped cold, we used a hefty heap of Gladfield Maize & Malteurop Pilsner for a summery, crisp body. Hops here hide any cloying sweetness while cold dry-hopping guides balanced pine & citrus to your mouth. It’s a lean, mean hoppy machine!

ABV: 5.9%
