James has secured some of this…coming soon!

We are beyond excited to be introducing Mikkeller Brewing New Zealand - a collaboration between Garage Project and the legendary from Denmark 🍻

These beers will be popping up in their venues throughout Asia, and we’re also lucky to have secured limited amounts for enjoyment closer to home!

Mikkeller works with select top breweries across the world, and we’re stoked they have chosen us as their partner for Asia Pacific. These are Mikkeller beers and their recipes, brewed in New Zealand by Garage Project, with our own input, specially selected hops from Nelson Lakes, local Gladfield malts, and sprinklings of our lot selected YCH hops.

Now it’s time to meet the beers!

Windy Hill - Hazy IPA, 7% 🌬️

Forest Friends - West Coast IPA, 6% 🌲

Mysterious Path - Hoppy Pilsner, 4.7% 🥾

Available now online and in GP venues
