Alibi Brewing Company

Amazing selection of beers! The view from the outside patio is breathtaking. We were lucky and the chief on duty (german) had made homemade bratwurst from his fathers recipe and they did not disappoint (beer may have been a factor) and the fries with aioli was amazing. As mentioned in other posts...they require a credit card to maintain a tab. This is normal in NZ unless you are paying for each drink at the bar. I highly recommend this place to unwind from a long day walking around the island. You may even see helicopters bringing in VIPs to the back landing pad :) If you are feeling adventurous try the beer made from cactus, its actually rather good

We ended our Waiheke Island day at Alibi, having some Cider and Beer instead of the wine we had at the other wineries. It has a great vibe, the whole complex is beautiful inside and out.Our waitress was very friendly and the drinks were good, would recommend to stop by here!

Awesome experience, highly recommend. The staff were so lovely, we spoke to several of them during our visit and their service was great. Beautiful setting, was just had chips for a snack while we visited and they were delicious. Wine was tasty and the bathroom decor was awesome. Recommend to all, will definitely be back.

Choice underground" feeling spot of the main winery restaurant upstairs. Really cool tap pipes coming down from the ceiling

best place to have a date night or to rewind with your special someone on the island

Echoing the previous statement this is not only the best brewery on the island, but probably the world. Cannot think of another brewery where every (and I mean every) beer has been so good.Looking forward to seeing where you go and fingers crossed you reach the UK soon.

It's ok.Decent selection of beers.Rather small, outdoor seating limited, indoor is very darkVery loud pointless thumping music, well over acceptable conversation level, not suitable for people with hearing aids. Staff did turn the music down when asked, but don't understand the need to turn a nice place into an R&B dicso thump thump...

Located below the restaurant part of Tantalus. Craft beers, wines and cocktails. Also a nibbles menu. The bar has an intimate underground cellar feel but there are also shaded outdoor seating overlooking the vines. Come and see for yourself!

We decided to spend the day on the hop on hop off bus and this was our first stop. It was a sunny day so we sat outside with great views over the surrounding vines. We did a tasting of the core beers and they were all great! The service was really good and the whole experience was amazing. The inside of the bar also looked really welcoming and cosy for those cooler days/nights. Highly recommend as a change to the wine tastings (which you can do upstairs at Tantalus)

One word Chicken Wings. You have to get these they were best I have had. Great staff. Awesome views. Highly recommended. Sadly no photo of the chicken wings as they disappeared quickly. Truffle chips were also a hidden gem. We spoilt ourselves with a 2015 reserve.
