Hallertau

Auckland Region


Hallertau offers tasting paddles ($12 to $16) of its craft beers served in its spacious and sociable biergarten, and inside on cosy tables near the bar. Regular guest beers, good food and occasional weekend DJs and live music make it popular with Auckland's hopheads. Our pick from the food menu are the beef krokets. Good wood-fired pizza too.
