From a shed next to the Sawmill Cafe to a capacious setup just outside of Matakana with an almost devastating fire thrown in the mix, The Sawmill Brewery has come a long way in two decades. Now one of the country’s leading craft breweries, you’ll find Sawmill on tap and in the fridge at bars and restaurants across the country. Borrowing an approach common among wineries, the team at Sawmill have established the Smoko Room onsite at the brewery where thirsty revellers can pop in for a cold pint and elevated drinking fare that takes full advantage of the local larder.
