What to expect

We are the oldest operational Brewery in New Zealand, and the only site to have an historic Brew Floor and state of the art Brewery housed within the same location. The Speight’s Brewery is also the spiritual home of New Zealand’s biggest beer brand, attracting over 25,000 visitors per year to experience the “Pride of the South”; as one if Dunedin’s most popular tourist attractions we are looking forward to welcoming you to our site. After an extensive remodel in 2017 we are now excited to be able to offer a range of Tour packages to suit our diverse market. We have found that combining our experience with a hearty meal at the Ale House is the perfect combination for travelers looking for a truly authentic experience at this iconic Dunedin venue. During our 60-minute tour guests will learn about the history of the Brewery; touch, smell and taste their way through our Heritage building before finishing up in the Tasting Room for a 30-minute Tasting – we will even include how to pour the perfect beer. Finish off with a 2-course meal at the Speight’s Ale House, including a glass of your newly discovered favourite beer.
