PUNKY  BREWSTER  JOCKEY  BOX

10L/20L/30L/50L KEGS

With the helping hands of a couple of keen beer engineers, we've managed to put together a set of Jockey Boxes for rent. These bad boys hook themselves up to a keg at one end and a bottle of CO2 on the other.

​The beer is then pressured through the metal coil on the inside which is packed full of ice. This means fresh, cold beer from a room temperature keg on the go. Suitable for all sorts of occasions; weddings, parties, day at the beach, funerals. The world is your oyster.

ZEFFER  APPLE  CRUMBLE  CIDER

$15.00/L
5.4%
This Kiwi classic has won too many awards (and fans) to mention on here. Delicious is the only way to describe this cider. If you can imagine a freshly baked slice of apple crumble served with vanilla ice cream… this sums up the taste of this beautifully balanced cider perfectly.
Zeffer's head cidermaker crafts this ingenious flavour using freshly crushed apples infused with cinnamon, vanilla and blackberry leaves.

$13.00/L

Superbly drinkable for the summer months. 
Hi-Vis got its name from the forest of Hi-Vis jackets Kaikoura has seen in the last year worn by the wonderful people from NCTIR and the other agencies fixing the roads into, and out of, Kaikoura. We'd be stuck without them so this one goes out to you guys & gals. When you drink this beer, raise a glass to these wonderful people
