Last chance for merch and mementos.

This store goes dark on 9/4/24. Here's a selection of what's left and that we're trying to avoid putting into storage (or worse, throwing away). Get in now!

After a bit of a hiccup, we're back in the business of selling off as much of our beautiful glassware, block mounted posters and gorgeous tap handles as possible.

Fine Beer Glassware is typically more delicate and shaped to fit specific styles of beer.

We've learned that some good friends, who were here on Thursday evening, have just tested positive for COVID.

Our ventilation was working at maximum on Thursday, meaning the air was a lot fresher than it would have been otherwise, but not enough to eliminate all risk.

The unlucky patrons were in the area we call the Red Room, as opposed to the Lounge where the music was.

So far, no positive tests among staff.

A few notes about our final day and night.

We’re expecting a fun few hours this evening, not least because the great Oscar Lavën is in charge of music. His all star quartet will take the stage some time after around 7:30 and play off and on for a while.

From 4pm we’re applying a $20 cover charge to raise funds for our staff. Cash only. There are ATMs in the neighbourhood.

We’ve got some beautiful ParrotDog and Kererū beer on tap to get us through. But if you’re looking for the wide selection of bottled beer that we prided ourselves on, then today might not be the best day.

Finally, this has been a long and challenging week for our staff who may be reluctant to get into long chats about the last 14 and a half years. So please understand if we all just concentrate on our jobs one last time.

Our venerable web store, the The Cult Beer Store has been neglected lately. But we're updating the glassware that's on there and we've created a discount code of "closing" that applies a 30% discount to glassware.

That discount code will expire in on March 6.

Check it out at www.cultbeerstore.co.nz

Meanwhile the most photographed thing to ever find itself on our premises is on TradeMe. It's the (in)famous Heineken Free sign. Head along there if you want to bid on something kinda historic and help out our staff at the same time. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/home-living/home-decor/signs/listing/4582014602

We're closing and to help ensure our wonderful staff get looked after we're selling this (in)famous piece of memorabilia. * One only, made in 2011 during the...
