Our humble Auckland brewery is home to an absolute legend of a brewer. Paddy Molloy is our in-house brew wizard. He has years of experience getting his hands dirty with beer, and his mission with us is to show Auckland that even a small brewery can smash out some big flavours. Join us every Wednesday at 3pm for a Brewery Experience to find out more, or give us a bell anytime to organise private group bookings.

Walk on in to the new wing of our award-winning brewery in Freemans Bay for a good old fashioned cut or shave. Our barbers pay keen attention to the finer details, adding a personal touch to make sure every hair is in place while you sip at the sweet nectars brewed right next door.

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. Check back here every month to see who's on stage next.

Is love really love if it doesn’t include 30kgs of FREE pork ribs?

Join us for a late lunch of finger licking goodness this Thursday 14 Feb as we celebrate both Valentines and Meatstock this weekend with a gigantic platter of ribs for all to dig right into at 3pm. The only catch is you have to purchase a beverage, and then you can eat ribs until your hearts content (or until they run out).

Sit back on our sun-soaked deck and sip on a cold one, or two, this summer every day from 4-6pm.

A New Zealand born London based creative, Woolrights inspiration comes from touring internationally as the drummer for the alternative rock outfits 'I Am Giant' & 'Blindspott' & more recently his new alter ego 'Deadbeat' - producing a high energy drum set layered with an original and inspired live experience like no other,
