We don’t aim to be the coolest, hippest brewery in New Zealand. We’ll leave that to the big-city-robot-science wunderkinds (and, let’s face it, even using the word ‘hippest’ probably rules us out). Instead, we simply concentrate on making delicious beer.
Surrounded by mountains, and with vistas of Paradise and the Rees River, we’re not exaggerating when stating we have the best brewery view in the country. This scenery also plays a big role in the beer – it’s from the heart of these mountains that our glacier-fresh aquifer delivers pure mineral water. Yes, it can be occasionally challenging brewing here. The water (and the weather) is often ice cold. But sometimes, as a great man once said, that’s better than being cool.
