Brew of Islands Beer Festival 2024

Brew of Islands Craft Beer Festival has returned for 2024, promising another weekend of hoppiness! Beer lovers eagerly anticipate another sip from the cup. Brew of Islands 2024 promises to build upon the success of last year, offering the finest craft brews from nine breweries spanning from the Bay of Islands to Wellington. Powerhouse’s Parrotdog, Garage Project, Urbanaut and Panhead will join the local brewers - Kainui Brew Co. Phat House, McLeod’s, Pacific Coast Brewing from Mangawhai and 8 Wired Brewing from Matakana. Local mixologist and cocktail maestro Ben Thrippleton of Kindred Spirits is back again with a tasty wee cocktail bar and a new Gin bar dedicated to all you gin-loving. Hit up one of local food vendors. They’ve created a Northland-style street food menu that goes epically well with a pint of golden goodness! Think fresh Kaimoana, mussel fritters, low n’ slow BBQ meats and bratwurst. No matter what suits your fancy, you’ll get a true taste of Northland in one hand while sipping on world class pints of precious pale ale’s in the other.
