Did you know around 100,000 Kiwis are diagnosed coeliacs? Add in people choosing gluten-free for lifestyle reasons, and that’s a significant chunk of people who are often quietly grateful when a venue has actually thought about them.

We’re partnering with O’Brien Gluten-Free Beer to help more NZ restaurants say yes when that customer asks “is there anything gluten-free on tap?”

(Spoiler: it’s also really good. World Beer Awards 2021 good.)

If you own or manage a venue and want to chat about stocking it, or just want some samples to try, get in touch. We’re here for it.

To the restaurant and bar owners in our community, this one’s for you.

We’ve been working with some brilliant NZ venues for a while now, and one thing that comes up again and again is the challenge of catering for guests with dietary needs. Not just food, but drinks too.

So we’re genuinely excited to be introducing O’Brien Gluten-Free Beer to the NZ hospitality scene. It’s Australian-made, has over 100 international awards, and was created by a founder who’s a coeliac himself. It tastes like a proper beer because it is one.

Four styles available: Lager, Pale Ale, XPA, and Brown Ale. Samples available to venues who’d like to try before they commit.

Drop us a message or tag a venue owner who should know about this!

Koe cheese bread is so good!
