Yeastie Boys -Pours pale gold with a soft white head that throws a delicate sweet grainy aroma and a gentle floral and spicy hop character? Munich-style lager. 

4.6% ABV.

Yeastie Boys and Teeling Whiskey invite you to try Sweet Old World, a Vienna-style amber lager inspired by Teeling's Virgin Chinkapin Oak whiskey.

Sweet Old Town is a crisp, refreshing, and easy drinking amber lager but bursting with aromatic notes reminiscent of the Single Pot Still whiskey - sweet toffee, caramel biscuits, and toasted crusty bread - before an elegant mix of malt and hop fruit comes through in the flavour. Dry, gently bitter, and deliciously drinkable. 

Try it on its own or as a boilermaker or whiskey beer float, with Teeling Virgin Chinkapin Oak whiskey.

5.1% ABV.

Brand new, you?re retro. Our new beer - Wizard Motor - brings back
some classic old school vibes with that West Coast IPA flavour.

drinkability!

Wizard Motor doffs its hat to those influential Californian and the Pacific Northwest beers that drove craft beer growth over the last 20 years and inspired this next generation.

Drive in, roll up, or do whatever you have to do. Just get to the front of the line for this tasty beer.

Zeelandt's first post cyclone brew is aptly titled ?Back on the Horse?, and there?s a deeply personal story behind the name. Despite our community suffering large losses, Zeelandt is in a position to help. With the generosity of our suppliers we are launching a new beer with all proceeds (after excise tax and freight) going to local organisations involved in the emergency response. We are  It?s thanks to our suppliers that we can maximise the funds going back to the community.

Back on the Horse is a New Zealand IPA inspired by a small wooden horse that remained standing on our property after floodwaters receded. My father Les, built a wooden horse in the vege garden for my two children to play on. While the force of the floodwaters took away the sheds and cars that surrounded it, the horse remained. To me, this was a sign that the only way for us as a community to move on from this event was to get back on the horse.

All funds raised from the sale of this beer will go towards Bay View Volunteer Fire Brigade, Lowe Corporation Rescue Helicopter, and Bay View Community Charitable Trust.

A shout out goes to our suppliers:

ZEELANDT - despite their job title, the 11th century Bavarian Monks of Kulmbach were just as concerned about the physical happiness of their fellow man as they were spiritual.  "If any man is thirsty, let him come to me and drink" said Christ.  "Too right!" replied the Kulmbach Monks as they poured another jug of their signature Bavarian Black Lager.  "Nice one" said all the Catholics in the area at the time.

Zeelandt Black Monk delivers smooth, rich malt flavours with hints of chocolate and coffee and a dry, clean finish.

 German Rauchbier, a beechwood smoked lager. This also utilises the uncommon technique of ?decoction? mashing.  Gentle smoke wafts over toasted grain on the nose, with a distant grassy hop character hiding away.  The palate is dynamic, with the smoke kicking things off before the highly expressive malts take over, finally subsiding into a clean and firmly bitter finish.  A hugely characterful lager that?s uniquely suited for winter drinking.

A golden lager that has a snappy bitterness and up front hoppy aroma.

An actual pilsner in the style of crafty old Josef Groll, who stole lager yeast from his native Bavaria in 1842 to make his signature style famous in Czechoslovakia and then the world. It’s therefore fitting that we blatantly stole his recipe to make a cheeky New Zealand pilsner without having to spend ages coming up with a recipe of our own. Your royalty cheque is in the mail Josef, honest!

Not known for their humility, it was an unpleasant surprise to Germany when someone other than Germany made a good beer. A German response to the rise of “that foreign pilsner” was therefore both necessary and urgent for the mental well-being of the entire nation. Helles, a golden lager in a similar vein, but with a smoother, mellower finish was the end result and probably stopped another inconvenient European land war so that was good.
