Tap Beers

The world's original Karakuchi ("super dry") beer, Asahi Super Dry's smooth, dry and light-bodied taste have propelled it to the front of Japan's beer market and made it a world favourite.

The crown jewel of Danish brewing needs little introduction. This European lager was groundbreaking in 1847 and is still the benchmark by which others are judged. Brewed by appointment to the Royal Danish Court. Best served at 7-10 C.

Budějovický Budvar is the original Czech lager, widely regarded as one of best tasting lagers in the world and the winner of countless awards from consumers and brewing specialists worldwide, including six domestic Beer of the Year titles (1996, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004).

Think beer in India & the first name you will think of is Kingfisher. India’s favourite beer (one in every 3 beers sold is a Kingfisher), is one of the oldest, most widely recognized and respected brands in India. Flavour is sweet & fruity with a distinct bitterness.

The Bouncing Czech is named after the town of Pizen (Pilsen) in what is now the Czech Republic. For centuries Pizen produced a beer famed for its strong hoppy taste. For a similar style we use NZ Cascade and Pacifica hops to produce a characterful pilsener with explosions of citrus. It'll bounce round your mouth like a rabbit on a trampoline.

Flying Fortress Ale symbolises everything great about beer: a big taste, a graceful aroma and two massive engines on each wing. The malts are Pale Ale combined with chocolate and caramel variants while the hops are NZ Motueka and Pacific Jade. Ardmore Airport, just 5km from the brewery, was originally built for these beautiful behemoths. Adjust your helmet and strap yourself in.

1920's Europe has some scorching summers so they invented a brew called radler, the German word for 'really hot cyclist that needs a drink'. This is our version, a cooling lemon and lime infused lager. We don't cycle so much these days, but we cut an awful lot of grass so we called it Lawn Ranger. Stretch out in the hammock and enjoy.

Back in the British Raj, elephant riding, tea-swilling settlers were in dire need of rescuing from the Indian sun. And so the India Pale Ale was born. Brewed with extra hops so it'd survive the voyage east, it was imbued with floral aromas, malty sweetness and a lingering dry finish. But enough of that Mumbo Jumbo. Stretch out on the verandah and enjoy.
