Legend has it that in early 1889, Henry Wagstaff stopped for a cup of tea at the banks of the Mangatainoka River and found the water made the finest cuppa he'd ever tasted. He decided on the spot it would be the ideal place to build a brewery. Brewed since 1889, Tui typifies typical kiwi humour. An East India Pale Ale, Tui is equally renowned as a great tasting, 4% alcohol session beer with a strongbut smooth taste.
