Hawkes Bay Brewing Co. - Craft Beer & RTDs

Some brands just feel like summer, and Hawke’s Bay Brewing Co (HBBC) is one of them. Born in 1995 and based in the sunshine capital of New Zealand, HBBC makes beers, ciders, and RTDs that are all about flavour and balance. 

With Hawke’s Bay’s warm climate and long sunny days doing their thing, it’s no surprise these drinks taste as good as they do. 

 Made the Old-School Way 

HBBC doesn’t rush the process, and you can taste that straight away. Their drinks are handcrafted in Hawke’s Bay, using locally sourced ingredients. Fresh fruit, quality brewing, and plenty of care go into every batch. 

They also stick to traditional brewing and fermentation methods, which means no shortcuts, just well-balanced drinks that taste great from the first sip to the last. It’s a classic craft, done in the HBBC way. 

 HBBC Drinks You’ll Want to Grab First 

Not sure where to start? These crowd favourites rarely disappoint: 

Peach Bomb (5% ABV) 
Made with New Zealand’s iconic Golden Queen peaches, Peach Bomb is juicy, bold, and full of summer vibes. Bright golden in colour and bursting with flavour, it’s sunshine in a can.

Berry Bomb (5% ABV) 
A blend of blackcurrants, blueberries, and a hint of apple, Berry Bomb is sweet, zesty, and refreshingly delicious. One sip and you’ll see why it’s a crowd favourite.

Ginger Fusion (5% ABV) 
An old-school ginger beer infused with a splash of mandarin, Ginger Fusion delivers a refreshing kick with a citrusy twist. Classic, but never boring.
