Whilst the brewing process has not changed in decades the technological developments have been absolutely amazing especially in terms of temperature control. We have invested in this technology and this will enable us to make a great product consistently. We service our customers by Keg and tap delivery to bars and restaurants. We also sell to the public in 2 litre stainless steel Flagons that are double skinned with sealable lids. These are a great product as well and are a game changer in terms of the way people buy and carry their beer on the island. By staying away from glass bottles it has become a better option for those who are weary and conscious of landfill waste. When you consider the logistics of getting a beer from Mexico or Italy or Japan or wherever and delivering it to a bar in Rarotonga for 5 or 6 bucks it is an amazingly efficient process. We know that in order to compete with that our job is to make a great beer that Visitors appreciate and our Locals are proud to call their own. We can do that and that's our commitment. A few establishments on the island have already jumped at the opportunity to have our top quality craft beer on tap at their establishments.
