beer baroness - hard act to follow peach & guava sour
5%
A Beer Baroness sorbet sour, with a little touch of lactose for added creamy sweetness to balance this tart little number.
The power of wheat and oats combine to provide mouthfeel and body but allowing the subtle peach notes to slip alongside the tropical notes of guava. This beer is the colour of fresh golden peaches of summers long ago. Bright, refreshing, tart and tantalisingly tasty, just perfect for a hot summer afternoon! |

Shining Peak - octopus clamp dark lager
5%
Novelist and Hawera luminary Ronald Hugh Morrieson was a big wrestling fan. His idol was Lofty Blomfield, a lion of the ring whose sickest move was the Octopus Clamp. He and his mates used to drink a brew from the Hawera Brewery called “O.C.” which Ron promptly dubbed Octopus Clamp. We’re going the rest of the way and making it for real as a chocolatey Schwarzbier with stone fruit and caramel flavours.

Kereru - Shepherd's Ale
2.5%
This full-flavoured, mid-strength amber red ale is made with Gladfield Shepherd’s Delight red malt and crystal malts for colour. It is hopped with NZ Rakau and NZ Goldings hops for a mildly bitter and creamy finish. We used enough malt that we could have made a much stronger beer, but with precise control in the mash tun, we’ve crafted a brew which is very big on flavour and yet only weighs in at 2.5% ABV. This is the perfect beer to drink and responsibly enjoy yourself.
