Meet the Kawatiri Kiwi! We've been working with local volunteers to build a website (and beer) in support of the Kiwi living in our backyard. Check out the videos, read the stories and vote for your favourite. While you're there, you can donate to support the volunteers too. www.kawatirikiwi.org

Pint of Origin venue #0. Fuelling up for the *real* start by hitting our home base for a cheesesteak and a @shortjaw.co.nz pils.
A lovely pot of Shortjaw Clear Sky Pils. A pale beer with a good frothy head.

Gorgeous Saturday here in the jewel of the south (Kawatiri/Westport). Sun is shining, mulled wine is steeping, and the grill is heating up for burgers and tacos. Everyone saying it's the "place to be" and who are we to argue?

Mulled wine is back for winter. Plus next Tuesday, Luke and Emma will be giving a talk at the Buller District Library. Free.

We've got new art for winter, from our good friend, Lance Kerr. A local artist who we've long admired, even before we started showing his art in the taproom. www.lancekerrpainter.com
An abstract collage style artwork. It's dark, with white slashes and lines, and bursts of pink.A similar work to the previous one. White slashes. Dark grey background and peeps of pink. It's brooding and deep.

Sunny weekend (again) in Westport, and we've got Chilean food at the brewery on Saturday. Our man, Ariel, is making Chilean-style hot dogs, alongside empanadas and potato cakes.

Two versions of a new IPA launching next month. Lots of hops. All NZ ingredients. One featuring locally grown organic feijoa.
Two beer tap badges, one with Neon Sun, the other Vivid Sun.

Neon has a cream background with a rainbow that shimmers. Vivid is the same design but with a lime green background. It says "feijoa IPA" underneath.
