Mount Brewing - Mildly amused english mild
4%
A modern take on an English classic, Mildly Amused is light, refreshing, and just cheeky enough to keep things interesting. Soft biscuit malt, a hint of honey, and a whisper of floral hops come together for an easy going pint that’s full of character without the heavy-handedness. It won’t knock your socks off honestly, it’s too polite for that, but it’ll definitely make you nod, smile, and say, “Well, that’s quite nice.”

Rich, juicy and luxurious, this IPA goes down like a fresh fruit cocktail with zesty aromatics of grapefruit, lime, mango and stone fruit from the Azacca hops.

Mount Brewing - Single Wave West Coast Pilsner
5.4%
Crisp, dry, and unapologetically hoppy, this West Coast Pilsner is a bold showcase of the experimental HBC 1134 hop from Yakima Chiefs. Brewed with a clean blend of Pilsner and a touch of Munich malt for subtle depth, this beer lets the hop shine at every stage - from bittering to dry hopping.
Expect bright citrus, resinous pine and floral notes balanced by a snappy bitterness and ultra-refreshing finish. At 5.4% ABV, it’s crisp, crushable, and packed with West Coast attitude. |
Kereru - Shepherd's Ale
2.5%
This full-flavoured, mid-strength amber red ale is made with Gladfield Shepherd’s Delight red malt and crystal malts for colour. It is hopped with NZ Rakau and NZ Goldings hops for a mildly bitter and creamy finish. We used enough malt that we could have made a much stronger beer, but with precise control in the mash tun, we’ve crafted a brew which is very big on flavour and yet only weighs in at 2.5% ABV. This is the perfect beer to drink and responsibly enjoy yourself.

Paradise - Prosecco
11%
Paradise Prosecco is a dry, fresh and crisp style of Prosecco with fresh citrus and stonefruit aromas and flavour and a long, dry finish.
Paradise Prosecco has been our best-selling wine by number of bottles sold since 2022. Delicious on its own or when paired with Aperol or Campari in a spritz (it makes for a great cocktail as it is light, fresh and dry). |
