Brothers Brewery is a New Zealand staple beer producer, but unfortunately on my visit they announced the brand was not doing well and the location close to my hotel was closing for good. I was thankful at least to visit their main location near Mt Eden and along the Auckland Beer Mile; based on my time here, I hope they turn things around and this place stays open for another visit next time. If you're in Auckland and a beer lover, this is worth the stop. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood, the big old factor is cozy and welcoming despite the large profile. They have areas of big comfy sofas, high top tables, and seating for any size group. You walk in along the offices, with restrooms toward the back. The night I was there pub trivia was going on - I jumped in with a team and won $50NZD! The brewery area takes up most of the space, with high ceilings you feel like you're in the middle of the production even at night. The staff here was all welcoming and super friendly to talk about the beer and put together a flight. This ended up being my last stop along the Beer Mile that day, but I was thankful I got a chance to come. Cheers and best of luck Brothers Brewery!
Very cool spot! Think retro 70's/beachy/industrial. To clear up any confusion, Brothers Brewery is Juke Joint and Juke Joint is Brothers Brewery. Come eat & drink! I wish this place was in my backyard! We had pulled pork sandwiches, brisket sandwich, cooked to perfection tator tots and mac n cheese. We also enjoyed some refreshing beers: Brothers Pilsner, IPA and Strawberry wheat. All crisp and cold. Great vibe in this place from the perfectly placed, conversational couches to the high tables and stools and visual assortment. They have trivia on Wednesday and a fantastic musical assortment. Enjoy the eye candy of the shiny, "FV" -fermenting vessels. We even had a nice tour from the awesome hostess. Definitely will be back!
