New Zealand's largest family-owned brewery, Harrington's of Christchurch, celebrated its 25th birthday last week. Having owned and run pubs for almost two decades, John and Val Harrington were exasperated by the Lion/DB duopoly and decided to start their own brewery. The Harringtons' first brewery, a 1000-litre system made up of old dairy vessels, was installed at the Kilmore St site of Christchurch's oldest brewery, Ward's. Today, that same site – minus many of the original brewery buildings, which were destroyed in the earthquakes – is home to Pomeroy's pub and Stainless Brewing Company.
