Equinox – A Taste of Longer Days

Spring is in the air, the days are stretching out, and that first pint in the sunshine is finally within reach. To mark the turning of the seasons, we’re bringing back an old favourite—but with a little more punch. Equinox is here, a bigger and bolder take on Spring Break, brewed to celebrate the longer days and the fresh flavours of spring.

Bigger, Bolder, Brighter

If you enjoyed Spring Break last year, you’ll love Equinox. We’ve upped the ABV to 4.6% (from 3.4%), giving it a fuller body while keeping that easy-drinking, refreshing charm. At its heart is the Motueka hop, known for its bright citrus and tropical notes—think zesty lemon and lime with a touch of fresh orchard fruit. That burst of flavour is balanced out by Simcoe, bringing a subtle bitterness and a whisper of pine to round things off. The result? A crisp, light, and incredibly drinkable pale ale, perfect for those first pints in a beer garden.

A Beer for the Changing Season

The equinox is all about balance—the turning point where daylight finally starts winning out over darkness. It’s a time of change, of fresh starts, of shaking off the winter blues and looking forward to the warmth ahead. Equinox is brewed in that same spirit: a beer that’s light and bright, but with a little more weight behind it—something to sip as you watch the world wake up again.

Perfect Pairings for a Pint of Spring

With its citrusy character and smooth bitterness, Equinox pairs beautifully with fresh, vibrant flavours. Try it with grilled seafood, herby roast chicken, or a light, tangy goat’s cheese salad. Or just enjoy it on its own, pint in hand, as you soak up the first real sunshine of the year.

This one’s a limited run, so don’t miss your chance to grab a pint while the days are getting longer. Cheers to spring—cheers to Equinox!
