From the record

Summary

Founded by Danish-born brewer Søren Eriksen, initially as a contract brewer before building its own site. Known for barrel-aged and sour beers alongside hop-forward work.

A summary written during research. The sourced facts are in the sections below.

Tally’s Take

A Dane brewing in New Zealand with a barrel programme, which is not what anyone expected the country to become known for. Started with no brewery at all, borrowing capacity until the beer justified building one.

American IPA

ABV7.3%

Brewed entirely with New Zealand hops, which taste of white wine and gooseberry rather than pine. A Dane in New Zealand making the case for local ingredients.
