Anyone sampled our new Soft IPA yet? ⁣
⁣
It’s in fine form and pouring fresh as! ⁣
⁣
Super hops, peacharine, Motueka & Citra are burst through a soft, delectable beer. Think rich peach and nectarines with a zesty citrus finish. ⁣
⁣
Don’t delay, who knows when this one will disappear, we know all kegs at the brewery have sold out already! ⁣

Look at this little pebble of cuteness ⁣
⁣
To whoever painted this pebble, we love it 🙌⁣
⁣
As our first months of being open have whizzed by, the difficult start is melting into the past and becoming part of the Ambleside community and landscape, as we’d always imagined we would, is quickly becoming a reality.

Little nuggets of the good things shine through even more. ⁣
⁣
Cheers 🍻 ⁣⁣

When the sun shows up, so do the spritz - fresh on the menu. ⁣
⁣
Not all about the beer, mostly but not all. ⁣
⁣
We’ll be adding more cocktails and a few spritz as we move to the warmer months. ⁣
⁣
Watch this space.⁣

It’s definitely beer garden weather up here in Ambleside.

Time to sit back, listen to stockghyll racing by and enjoy the sun.

This fresh as (kegged & canned yesterday) new release is pouring right now, and cans are available too.⁣
⁣
We couldn't squeeze another big hitting NZ hop in here if we tried. Full of big tropical fruit pops, passionfruit, mango and pineapple, along side super zesty citrus fruits all sitting on a beautiful easy soft malt base - perfect to see spring coming to life.⁣
⁣
The Near Miss, 1919 a year that was pivotal in NZ drinking culture - they nearly became a dry country, but thanks to the valiant efforts of the soldiers fighting overseas they turned the vote against prohibition - it really did become the year of the near miss. ⁣

Vegan Friendly, Unfiltered, Unfined⁣
