There are over 200 breweries in New Zealand producing and serving high quality beer in some of the most unique settings in New Zealand.
The NZ Ale Trail aims to make it easy for you to find out where you can enjoy these great Kiwi beer experiences. We like to call it ‘sip local, support local’ - you get authentic, unique experiences and, at the same time directly support the people and communities behind New Zealand’s great beer, hops and malt.
The NZ Ale Trail is a product of the Brewers Guild of New Zealand. We are the industry association for brewing in New Zealand. Our vision is that the quality and creativity of New Zealand beer is celebrated at home and around the world.
