Brew of Islands returns for 2025

Northland’s ultimate craft beer celebration, Brew of Islands, is taking place on Saturday, June 28, at the Turner Centre in Kerikeri.

This year’s festival will showcase eight breweries: Garage Project, Urbanaut, Phat House, Parrotdog, Kainui, McLeods, 8 Wired and Double Vision; plus gourmet street food, live music, and good vibes all day long.

With two sessions available, 12pm-4pm and 6pm-10pm, ticket holders can expect to experience around 50 different beers from hoppy IPAs to sour gems, smooth lagers and bold new blends.

“We are excited to welcome the froth at the top of New Zealand’s craft Brewery’s and the tasty little drops of heaven they will be bringing with them – you will get the experience to sample NZ’s most exciting beers,” say organisers.

There will also be 0% options, artisan cocktails and a gin bar available on-site – plus authentic BBQ, hand-rolled tacos and fresh oysters.
