The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Flagship craft beer brewers and restaurant in Upper Hutt's Brewtown, Boneface has not gone under and closed "shop". The hospitality enterprise has been taken over by an experienced craft beer brewer ( think Panhead) and Upper Hutt identity.

Hopefully (hopfully) the new management will produce a wider array of beer and cider and something new regularly. This is what has been missing.

If Boneface reverted back to its sumptous food platters that would be good too.
