Hakanoa gives parents the chance to swap their ginger children for ginger beer
They say children are a blessing, but it’s fair to say no parent sets out wanting a ginger child. So ginger beer maker
Hakanoa has given those parents unfortunate enough to be cursed with ginger children the opportunity to swap them for
something they will want, a six pack of delicious Hakanoa Handmade Ginger Beer. From Tuesday 31st of July until Friday
31st August parents with ginger spawn will be able to bring them into The Little Grocer on Richmond Road, Grey Lynn,
where they will be able to swap them for a six pack of ginger beer. This amazing offer will be communicated to the
public by way of the attached street posters which will be appearing throughout Auckland, and two bespoke posters
attached to The Little Grocer.
Said Rebekah Hay, Hakanoa Founder: “Parents of ginger children have a pretty tough lot in life. From the sympathetic
glances, to the smirks to the feelings of shame, there’s a lot for them to bear. So we’re hoping this small gesture will
brighten their lives, even if only for a little while.”
About Hakanoa Handmade Ginger Beer
Hakanoa Handmade Drinks was established by Rebekah Hay in December 2009.
Rebekah started making freshly fermented live unpasteurised ginger beer in two flavours - classic Dry Ginger Beer, and
the innovative Lime & Chilli Ginger Beer. Rebekah started selling her products from a van on the side of the road, and they have steadily
gained popularity with locals who appreciate a soft drink that's not too sweet.
The ginger beers are now available at many Farmers markets and speciality food stores in Auckland, and are served at
over 30 Auckland landmark cafes.
Hakanoa is established on sustainable local business principles; using organic fair trade ingredients wherever possible
and locally made recyclable materials for packaging.
