Beers are the most widely consumed alcohol on the planet so it’s no wonder we celebrate a World Beer Day every year in August. Why not head to the perfect pub, brewery or beer garden on August 5 for your favourite cold strong pint. Here’s six of the best beer places in Auckland, according to you on our social media.
1. Morningside Tavern
A favourite among locals in Sandringham, this 5-star reviewed pub has a beer garden and serves a range of tap beers, bottled beers like Corona and Budweiser, ciders and even low-calorie beers such as Speights. Plus, there’s a delicious menu to satisfy the hunger from shared platters to pizzas, loaded fries and more.
