Beer and Wine

Wines
|
|
| Our white wines, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, have achieved an international reputation for excellence - and the reds are catching-up fast! |
|
Beer
|
|
| New Zealand has a couple of world famous beers. Popular beer in the Hawke's Bay region is called "Tui". |
|
|
Alcohol
|
|
| Most night-spots, restaurants and cafes serve liquor seven days a week. You can purchase alcohol from liquor outlets (beer, wine and spirits) and supermarkets (beer and wine only) seven days a week. Legally you must be 18 years old to buy alcohol or consume it in a public place, and you may be asked for a photo-ID. |

Night Life in New Zealand
|
|
| Lively DJ and band scenes, particularly in the larger cities, have given New Zealand's night life a renewed vibrancy. You will find a variety of night-clubs, cabarets, pubs, concerts and live performances to choose from, and there are also two casinos, in Auckland and Christchurch, which are open 24 hours a day. |

Shows
