PhatHouse Brewery and River Walk

Friday 11th and Saturday 12th

Enjoy a ferry ride from Russell to Paihia, before you start your walk along the waterfront in Paihia to Waitangi and the start of the Haruru Falls track,  which is a sheltered track full of bird-watching, local history and stunning views. Walking to the horseshoe-shaped Haruru Falls, which means to roar or big noise in Te Reo Māori.

Arriving at PhatHouse Brewery at 2 pm for a 1-hour tour that includes a behind-the-scenes tour of the brewery, a brief history of PhatHouse Brewing Co. and how our present building became the brewery & Bar it is today. They also give insights as to what is involved in the brewing process and there is the opportunity to smell the hops, taste the grains and taste the beer directly from the tank! A tasting paddle is also included with the tour.  Well worth it with this entertaining and passionate crew of brewers.

Following the tour enjoy a wood-fired pizza in the lovely surroundings.
