Are you aware of the history of Beer & Pie July?

Let's take a journey back to 1922...

World-renowned Egyptologist, Howard Carter, discovered evidence of the first beer & pie combination in the Valley of the Kings.

It didn’t take long for this ancient tradition to spread across the globe.

Even today this yearly festivity continues.

Throughout the month of July we encourage you to enjoy an icy cold beer and one of NZ’s signature dishes - the humble pie.
