Our Hippy Berliner was such a success that we ebbed to consumer demand and brewed a special edition with the addition of cooling cucumber. Bursting with sweet cucumber notes, balanced by lemon peel and tropical fruits. 

On the palate this beer is puckering, but very refreshing, full of cucumber, citrus and balanced by light hopping, finishing very clean. 

Cool as a cucumber, dude.

Sparkling fizzy non export lager.

5% ABV

Tropical and citrus aroma from the Citra, Mosaic and Nectaron hops with a lingering and unmistakably beer finish.  ALL DAY.

"We’ve been on the hops again… beavering away to create a 100% crafted non-alcoholic IPA, that tastes like a delicious refreshing beer."

Contains no more than 0.5% Alc/Vol.

 Extra Stout is built for those who appreciate depth. A rich and robust stout layered with roasted malt, dark chocolate, and subtle coffee notes, balanced by a smooth, lingering finish. Because sometimes, more really is more.

This beer is made in the traditional Belgian way i.e. a grist of 40% raw wheat and 60% malted barley, a turbid mash, aged hops, a long boil, spontaneously fermented (the wort is cooled overnight in an open tray allowing wild yeast and bacteria to inoculate it), aged in oak barrels for at least 1 year and then refermented on honeyberries for 2mths before packaging. The whole process takes about 2 years.
Karamu Honeyberry is ready to drink after about four months of conditioning. However, although it continues to evolve, it remains great drinking for many years.

- Duncan’s x Tony’s Pizza -

Born from the food obsessed minds at Duncan’s and Tony’s Pizza, this brew is a three-way flavour handshake between America, Italy, and New Zealand. Crisp, zesty, and dangerously drinkable. It's a beer that tastes like a high-five between a pizzaiolo and a brewer.

When beer meets pizza… everybody wins!

Sunshine Brewing - Born of sun, sea and hot afternoons, Gizzy Gold, as it’s known locally, is our classic thirst quenching and award winning session lager. Dry, crisp and refreshing, it has a lightly toasted maltiness over a solid Green Bullet hop backbone.

Fermented at a low temperature with its own imported yeast strain, it’s a time proven brew to wash out the salt out after a hard day’s surfing, working or playing.
A gift to you from us old Gisborne surfers.
