Can't stop thinking about your favourite kiwi pub meal? Our doors will be open again soon, and you'll see we've shaken up our menus as we get used to doing things a little differently around here. Don't worry though, we've still got your cravings covered.

You can learn a lot over a beer, and you can learn even more in our award-winning Brewery Experience.

Our Brewery Experience is perfect for a Birthday, work event, or just a fun activity to do with a group of your beer-loving mates.

For just $30pp, you'll get to enjoy:

• 3 X 300ml tasters of award-winning Sweat Shop brews
• A pint of your favourite brew
• Food matches and social platters
• Brewers discussion with our very own brew wizard Paddy

Sound like a bit of you? Fill out an enquiry form below and our Sales & Events Manager will be in touch.

Get involved at Sweat Shop with an honest recipe for a bloody good night. Fresh beer straight from the in-house brewery, taps on rotation, a mouth-watering menu of smoked meats and hearty feasts, a crowd of keen Aucklanders and live music as the backdrop.

We've got the perfect excuse to support your favourite local and connect with mates over a cold one with 1.8L jugs of Export for just $25 each. Cheers to that!

While the way we connect with others may have been mixed, shaken and stirred for now, we wanted to keep the simplest of joys alive from home. We've figured out a way to get many of your favourite beverages delivered to your door all from one place, with contactless delivery to keep you safe.
