After our fill of fork, it was on to Fortune Favours, one of the<br />
city’s younger brewers. Started by Shannon Thorpe, who had<br />
grown tired of working for other brewers, Fortune Favours was<br />
set up in an old industrial building and brews beers on site that<br />
are fresh, fun and innovative. This is another bar that’s hard to<br />
miss thanks to the large wooden hand sticking out from the<br />
front of the building overhead as you walk by. Its motto is ‘be<br />
bold, be brave, be lucky’ – a mantra we can all get behind in<br />
these modern times.<br />
Despite our best efforts, we weren’t able to get around all of<br />
the brewpubs in Wellington, as several are a little out of town.<br />
Honourable mentions to the best of the rest include Parrotdog<br />
(we did pick up their beer in a supermarket and it is excellent),<br />
Double Vision Brewing, Heyday and Waitoa Social Club. We<br />
also haven’t mentioned any of the countless excellent bars and<br />
pubs around the city that are not run by brewers but offer a<br />
dazzling range of beer from all over this wonderful country.<br />
Quite simply, you could live in Wellington for a year and not<br />
master its craft beer scene fully, it’s that comprehensive. This<br />
was something we contemplated with wonder as we sat sipping<br />
on a few cans of very varied beers from another Kiwi brewer<br />
Funk Estate. Wellington has something for everyone – whether<br />
you know what you like and stick religiously to it, you like to<br />
experiment wildly, or you’re somewhere in between – craft beer<br />
flows through the veins of this city and long may it prosper.<br />
