Meet Mike Neilson

Mike and Anna started Panhead in 2013 with Mike in the brewery and Anna in the office. They sold their house to fund the brewery and had support from Mike’s parents who sold investment property to help raise capital.

They settled on Upper Hutt as a site for the brewery — in the old Dunlop Tyres factory, where Neilson’s father once worked.

Three years later Lion Panhead.

After seven years under Lion, Mike left Panhead at the end of last year.
