It's the last Sunday of winter - and what a way to see it out ☀️

The deck is bathed in sunshine this afternoon and we'd love nothing more than to share it with you. Pull up a chair, order a cold one, and raise a glass to the end of the cold season.

And One NZ Warriors fans, we've got you covered too! Kick off is at 4pm on the TV inside, so you can have the best of both worlds. Sun on the deck first, footy inside after. Sounds like the perfect Sunday to us 🏉🍕🍺

Come farewell winter in style at the . We'll see you soon!

Happy International Dog Day to our furry four legged friends, from Sparge and Brewser at the     🐶🍺💛

Have you tried saying Polotmavy yet? 😄

Pronounced poh-loh-TMAH-vee, Emerson's Brewery's latest limited edition is a Czech Amber Lager that is as beautiful to look at as it is to drink - and that photo says it all.

Polotmavy translates from Czech for Half-Dark, and it sits perfectly in that in-between space - just like the season we're in right now. The days are getting longer, the sun is starting to linger a little later, but there's still a definite chill in the air. This is the pint for exactly that moment.

Light and drinkable with a lovely toasty malt character and Czech Saaz hops, it's the kind of beer you settle into without even noticing how quickly the glass empties. At 5.2% it's a very easy afternoon companion🍺

Fresh from success at the recent Brewers Guild Awards, Richard Emerson will be joining us tomorrow night! From 5.30pm, and at intervals throughout the night, we’ll be pouring samples from deep within the Emerson’s cellar - including a 2012 Barley Wine, the 2014 vintage of Taieri George, and a couple more treats we’ve been quietly sitting on.

Never tried a vintage beer? Never chewed the fat with a vintage brewer? Tomorrow night, at your favourite vintage local, you can tick off both.

It’s free to come along - but samples are limited so book your table. See you tomorrow night at the 🍻

Some originals are worth going back to 🍺 Especially when they’re Award winning! 🏆

Emerson's Brewery Pride of the Plains has arrived at the - and if you know your Emerson's history, you'll know just how special this one is. First brewed on 16 May 1995, Pride of the Plains was the original name for what would become the iconic Emerson's Pilsner. Brewed with Saaz D hops - now known as Riwaka - the reboot stays true to the original single-hop recipe, delivering the same bold fruit flavours with beautiful notes of passionfruit and lime at a sessionable 5%.

And last night it won big as it was named Best NZ Lager and Pilsner at the NZ Beeer Awards!

As Emerson's put it - everyone loves an original. The original song, the original movie, the original sneakers. And now, the original award-winning Pilsner 🍻

Make the most of it. It might not be around again for another 30 years.
