★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Breaking news. The Brewery and Tasting room reopens at 10 Harbour St (between The Collective and Whitestone city) on Friday 3 June 2022.
Oamaru's very own famous Belgian style craft (now, not-so-nano) brewers have a tasting room in Harbour St in the old Victorian quarter. The range, style of & ambience will have you thinking you are really in Belgium. Except the prices are NZ Dollars - so are maybe a little higher than the other so called craft beer places around. But their beer is authentic and hand crafted - and so much better than many so called "Belgian style ales" that you find these days are (note no Stella Artois is served here mate!).
They unashamedly do NOT make a beer for every taste, so don't ask for something they don't sell. Like any kind of IPA.
Every beer they make or hosts, oozes class, authenticity, attention to detail and true taste. Guest craft beers, ciders and wines are served. If you're a hardened wine only drinker some of these top notch ales might have you rethinking your notion of what "boring old beer is".
You can also buy bottles (or a dozen bottles in a carton - if you ask the bar staff or brewers really nicely) to take home with you.
Note: the current tasting room 1.0 is closed since July 2021 to make way for expansion into tasting room 2.0 - also in Harbour Street, shortly re opening (and now confirmed as) on 3 June 2022.
It will feature the same old wine (and whingers, including me) just in newer bottles and surroundings.
Maybe I'll see you there.
If you do visit, tell Michael or LeeAnn that Greg's review sent ya - they most definitely will have a clue.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent craft beers and great "old pub" atmosphere. Served by a knowledgeable host, Michael was proud to explain his selection of 8 samplers and 4 cheeses he chose for us. All were excellent and with so many complex flavours. It was a great night. Craftworks is a must visit on any visit to Oamaru.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An absolute must if you’re visiting the South Island of New Zealand (or even the North) - truly resolute in their conduct and culture (no pun intended) and the beer is truly spectacular. Thank you!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing place. Strong beer. Not the craft hoppy kind, but more Belgium style.
All brewed by themselves. Matching cheese platter was amazing as well.
The people behind the bar gave amazing recommendations. Love the theme of the place and beers.
Will definitely go back if I’m ever back in Oumaru.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Seriously the coolest little spot. It is very hidden and easy to miss!
The beers are very unique, don't try to find Pilsner here. Staff is very knowledgeble and friendly.
Fun little stop in Oamaru. The cheese is also worth the stop.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Fantastic place owned and operated by fantastic people. Excellent well crafted beer and a lot of thought has been given to the ambience.
Oh and thank you so much for digging out one of the last bottles of Dieu Noir! It's very much appreciated and every sip will be savored (when the time comes to open it that is)...

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ All the ? are amazing!!! Complex flavors that pack a punch in a tiny package but you couldn't tell from how smooth a delicious they are.
I went here every day I was recently in Oamaru to do taster flights to sample all that Craftswork had to offer and then a larger glass of whatever else suited my fancy. Bought a bunch of bottles to take home and look forward to my next visit with the amazing owners/brewers.
