Monteiths Brewery

From humble origins in 1868, the Monteith’s family-owned Phoenix Brewery became the West Coast’s most popular brewery for its strong tasting, full-bodied ale. The Phoenix Brewery later merged with a group of small breweries to form Westland Brewing Company, predecessor to today’s Monteith’s Brewing Company.

The Monteith’s Brewery is going strong and continuing with the same brewing traditions almost 150 years on from its inception. Along with coal-fired boilers there are open fermenters that allow the brewer to see and smell the beer as it slowly matures. Our brewers carefully nurture the beer by hand in small batches to coax out the full natural flavours. When the beer finally emerges, it is of such high quality that the bottles are filled without pasteurisation to keep the natural aroma and taste intact. All that’s left is tasting” for the purposes of quality control.
