Harrington's Breweries is a family owned microbrewery based in Christchurch, New Zealand.

History

Harrington's Breweries was founded by John and Val Harrington in 1991.[1][2] The first beer was brewed on 15 July 1991 at the Old Wards Brewery site on Kilmore Street, Christchurch. Their first set up allowed them to make 3500 litres a week.[3] Demand soon exceeded supply and in 1993 they moved to their much larger and their current location in Ferry Road, Christchurch. The move increased their capacity to 50000 litres a week.[3] In 2012 they were awarded "Champion Brewery" at the Brewers Guild of New Zealand Awards.[4]

Today

Harrington's Breweries is still owned by the Harrington's family.[2] They brew over 25 styles of beer, including seasonal beers, ciders and an alcoholic lemonade.
