Discover Great Beer in the Heart of Martinborough

Martinborough Brewery is South Wairarapa’s original and only craft brewery, proudly located in the heart of wine country. Just as people journey here for world-class wine, now they’re discovering something equally special—exceptional, small-batch beer made with care, creativity, and a deep respect for flavour.

A Craft Brewery Born in Wine Country
Our journey to great beer led us to Martinborough—not by accident, but by design. This town is a destination for those who appreciate quality and taste. Surrounded by rolling vineyards, it’s the perfect home for a brewery where flavour, passion, and craftsmanship come together in every glass.

We share the same values as our winemaking neighbours: obsession with detail, local ingredients, and the desire to create something worth travelling for.

Handcrafted Beer Worth the Journey
At Martinborough Brewery, we brew bold, balanced beers in small batches. From English-style bitters and crisp lagers to hop-forward IPAs and seasonal releases, every beer is a celebration of flavour, quality, and place.
Whether you’re a craft beer connoisseur or a curious taster, you’ll find something to enjoy—on tap at our brewery taproom, in cans, or poured fresh from a keg at your local.

Visit Our Taproom in Martinborough
Warm hospitality, covered seating, local wines and award-winning fresh local beer—our taproom is the best place to experience the full Martinborough Brewery story. Rain or shine, we’ve got you covered. Stay dry, stay warm, and enjoy a pint (or a flight) of our latest brews.

Great beer is a journey.
We’d be honoured if you joined us on ours.
