The Corner Brewery NP is a bar on Corbett Road in Bell Block, a short drive north-east of central New Plymouth, rated 4.7 from 23 Google reviews, with updates posted on its Facebook page.
Brewery bars trade on freshness — beer poured days rather than weeks after brewing simply tastes livelier. Tap lists at small breweries shift with the brewing schedule, so a favourite one visit may be gone the next; asking what's just come on is never a wasted question. Good ones pour a small taste before you commit to a full glass, which takes the guesswork out of an unfamiliar style. Regulars know to catch a batch early in its run, while it's at its brightest.
A proper local for Bell Block — no need to head into central New Plymouth for a good pint.
