Still on the site it has occupied since 1876, Speight's Brewery has become one of Dunedin and Otago's biggest icons. Not just the ‘Pride of the South’, the Speight’s brand is one of New Zealand’s most loved beers.
The Speight’s Heritage Centre is a first class guided tour through the working brewery and Speight’s museum.
From the antiquity of beer in Babylonian times, travelling through the cobblestone streets of the past to the introduction of beer in New Zealand and the story of Speight’s brewery.
At the end, you’ll get to meet a real ‘Southern Man’ and taste the Speight’s selection fresh from the brewery in the private Heritage Bar.
