Our humble Auckland brewery is home to an absolute legend of a brewer, Paddy Molloy, 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. Enquire Here.

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.

Aaand it's back!

New Zealand's only event of it's kind will have you feeling hot hot hot - hot, as Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen's Hot Sauce Festival returns for it's fourth year.

Packing more punch than ever before, join like-minded chilli heads across an entire weekend.

We're kicking off on Saturday 25 May with a chilli review from one of the worlds most famous heat-seekers Johnny Scoville from Chase The Heat, followed by the NZ Chilli Eating Championship finals where both experienced heat dwellers and wild rookie contestants will encounter the worlds hottest chilli, the Carolina Reaper. White Chapel Jak will be joining us to kick off the afternoon dance floor followed by DJs late into the evening.

On Sunday 26 May, things heat up in the Homemade Hot Sauce Competition followed by Johnny Scoville returning for the Johnny vs World Chilli Challenge.

Over both days, the top hot sauce brands from NZ and beyond unite to showcase their heated madness for you to enjoy here or take home. Confuse your taste buds with the cool but hot feel of fiery cocktails, a specially brewed Chilli Beer and spicy smokehouse food menu.

Can't handle the heat yourself? We promise watching others fight the burn is worth every cent.

Over the years, The Beat Council has built a solid and loyal following that leaves queues out of Sweat Shop's door so, if you want to be sure to catch them in all their glory, make sure you get down to Sweat Shop Brew Kitchen nice and early every Friday from 10pm – midnight.
