Townshend Brewery

As well as Nelson hops, Townshend’s also has access to an aquifer of ancient water to brew with, drawn up from the Motueka aquifer.
These two ingredients, together with a passion for brewing using traditional methods, have seen the Brewery jump to prominence, winning awards and accolades from the NZ Brewing industry. Martin is a strong advocate of the natural fermentation process, “we brew the way people have done for centuries, we don’t ‘soda stream’ the bubbles back into our brews like most breweries. Our brews have the depth of flavour that only comes from natural fermentation.
