Deep Creek

Even though New Zealand is really infinitely far away from Germany and you might think that there are hardly any similarities between here and there, one thing still connects us: the love of beer. In New Zealand, beer is the most popular alcoholic drink and is just as popular there as it is here. Beer is the common denominator of connoisseurs around the world and we want to celebrate this global passion with as wide a variety of different breweries from all corners of the world as possible. A new addition to our international selection of the most artistic beer brewers is Deep Creek Brewing.

From the garage to China

The young brewery has set up camp in Silverdale. The town in the north of New Zealand lies above Auckland and in the middle of a whole series of picturesque beaches. The founders of the brewery are Jarred MacLachlan, Paul Brown and Scott Taylor - three beer-loving individuals who have joined forces for a great mission. The friends' path to their own brewery began in Jarred's garage. Whenever they had time, the beer fans met there to put their ideas into tasty and sometimes less tasty beer experiments. They tinkered with styles, experimented with raw materials, developed recipes and improved them until they finally had put together a solid repertoire of enjoyable beers. From then on, things went steeply uphill: in 2011, the team made their venture official and registered the brewery under the name Deep Creek Brewing. Brewing was in full swing and the company grew rapidly. To date, Deep Creek Brewing is one of the fastest growing craft breweries in New Zealand and is increasing its output every year.

Beer for everyone

It wasn't long before the enthusiastic brewers gained international fame with their heavenly creations: The beers scored highly in prestigious competitions and attracted attention with their aroma, character and drinkability. Today, Deep Creek specialties are exported as far as China. But the trio attaches great importance to staying true to their roots: In addition to their flourishing business, they run a brewpub in Browns Bay, which supplies local fans with freshly tapped beer. On tap and in global trade, you can find a subtly curated selection of hand-brewed craft beers that tastefully reflect the passion, team spirit and enthusiasm of Deep Creek Brewing. One favorite in the range, for example, is the fruity Hazy Pale Ale , which was brewed in collaboration with the Australian brewery Big Shed Brewing . Refined, artfully brewed and with character - that's how we love our beer!
