Harrington's Breweries

Harrington's Breweries was founded in 1852 by John Harrington, who had a passion for brewing and a vision for creating high-quality beers.

The brewery's early success can be attributed to its unique location near a natural spring, which provided a consistent source of crisp, clean water.

Harrington's Breweries is known for its iconic beer, Harrington's Ale, which has been brewed using the same traditional recipe since 1865.

There are now more than 150 independent breweries in New Zealand, a stark contrast to the single other independent brewer aside from Lion and Dominion Breweries when Harrington started.

Lion plans to invest NZ$2 million in updating the Christchurch brewery to continue producing Harrington's beers.

Rory Glass, Managing Director of Lion, believes Harrington's will be a fantastic complement to their existing range and make their beers more accessible nationwide.
