The story of Wakachangi 12x330C

Wakachangi is a New Zealand lager that began as a joke. Comedian and radio host Leigh Hart floated the idea of a beer called Wakachangi in a Facebook post, it spread across the country, and he decided he had better follow through. It is brewed in Nelson by the McCashin family, whose Stoke brewery Terry and Bev McCashin turned from a cidery into a brewery in 1980. The family went in on Wakachangi with Hart in 2016.

The beer itself is a 5% ABV lager in the plain, mainstream style, and Hart has been upfront that it is a simple everyday beer rather than a craft one. The label carries a running gag, the claim that it was established circa 1648.

This pack is twelve 330ml cans, built for a chilly bin. Put it next to sausages off the barbecue, buttered corn on the cob, or a newspaper parcel of fish and chips eaten on the beach.
