GOOD STORY
THE YARN BEHIND THE BREWS
We craft our beers using local grain, South Island hops, and pure Alpine water, creating brews that are full of flavour and proudly southern — made purely for your enjoyment.
Our first release in Ōamaru, Scotts Nineteen 05 Golden Ale, marked the return of commercial brewing to the area after more than a century — and the start of something special.
We’re still independently owned and operated, and we stay true to our roots by crafting quality beer in a sustainable, hands-on way.
