Early evening the whole area is a ghost town compared to Friday with everywhere closed apart from here and Wild Kiwi next door. A few folk still abound with a few outside as well as in.

Te Aro - Dragon5.70ExcellentFull bodied fruity hoppy flavoursome fare.
Te Aro - Speedway5.70ExcellentFull bodied heavily hopped toasty APA style with a lingering dryness and hints of honey, treacle and peach.

Next door to The Wild Kiwi with a similar layout and similar efficient knowledgeable and enthusiastic bar staff to offer advice on the many beers available. Again just listed what I had.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Te Aro - Spotlight On Citra5.60ExcellentThis APA highlights the floral, citrus and tropical notes of the Citra hop.
Te Aro - Remutaka NZ IPA 5.70ExcellentThis is an NZ IPA, using Nelson Sauvin, Moutere and a little Riwaka hops through the boil and dry hop. A little sweet malt flavour gives way to a nice solid bitterness.
Te Aro - Dubh X Oatmeal Stout5.30ExcellentSilky smooth oatmeal stout with rich notes of chocolate and coffee.
