🥃 TAKE THE ANTLER HOME WITH YOU! 🦌

Well, we’ve officially bottled our bu****it. 🤣

HARD ANTLER WH**KY! 🥃🔥

Available in 100ml and 350ml bottles, depending on how much of us you can tolerate.

And unlike the glasses, ashtrays and antlers on the wall, you’re actually allowed to take this home. 😂

Who’s adding one to their collection? 👀

R18. Enjoy responsibly.

SERIOUS QUESTION… ARE WE ACTUALLY BEING TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT SH6? 👀

38 DAYS.

Open all night. Open all weekend.
Monday morning? 🚧 Sorry Haast, dangerous again 😂 but they wanna say it’s about safety? What a joke.

THIS IS THE WEST COAST. We know slips. We’ve seen far fu***ng worse.

Businesses are STILL bleeding money. We’ve personally lost well over $50,000 now and it’s still going on

Nick said it on the news… he thinks they’re pulling the chain.
Now we’re hearing stories of Fulton Hogan having BBQs on site and workers allegedly being told to slow down.

Meanwhile don’t forget who’s paying for this… US TAXPAYERS

So seriously… what the heck are we actually paying Fulton Hogan for?

Something isn’t adding up.

What have YOU seen or heard? 👀👇

🔥 SHARE THIS. Let’s get it outside the West Coast because if taxpayers are paying for it, taxpayers deserve answers.

Okay Haast, we need your help 👀📸

Our Local Legends wall is looking a bit bare and we wanna fill it up properly.

We’re after the good s**t, old Haast photos, hunting, whitebaiting, big catches, questionable missions, local characters, old school Antler photos and anything with a bloody good story behind it 😂

Not just random photos of Haast — we want the ones that deserve a spot on the wall. The funny ones, the impressive ones, the “f**k I remember that” ones.

Chuck them in the comments or send them through to us! and tell us who’s in it / what’s going on

Surely there’s some absolute gold hiding in photo albums around Haast 👀😂 Dig ’em out! we wanna see the photos that shouldn’t be forgotten.

Serious question… how long should it actually take to get one road properly open? 👀 it’s been one month…Because at this ...

Serious question… how long should it actually take to get one road properly open? 👀 it’s been one month…

Because at this point Nick’s been on the radio, on the news and is about one inconvenience away from grabbing this shovel and heading up there himself 😂

But let’s talk about the REAL victim here…

Dude the dog is missing out on an unacceptable number of pats from people who should be driving through Haast right now. 🐶

We keep hearing about the work being done, but Haast and other West Coast businesses are the ones living with the consequences while we wait.

So what do you think.. is this taking a reasonable amount of time?

Fulton Hogan, feel free to weigh in. 👀

It’s a beautiful day for a West Coast meal of whitebait 🤤😍

Haast is open, the sun’s out, the drinks are cold and the whitebait’s delicious ☀️🍻

If you can get to Haast, we’ll make it worth the drive. 😉 road reopens at 5.30 again today in case you didn’t know

Come in, grab a feed and make the most of it while whitebait season is still here! 🦌❤️

Aaaand we’re on the news again!! 😂🦌📺

Turns out if you mess Haast around long enough Nick Kummer ends up on the news 😂🦌

He’s had enough, we’ve had enough, Haast has had enough. The slips on the news aren’t even from this slip!!

We’ve been patient. We’ve dealt with the convoys, the uncertainty and the cancellations, while local businesses and our community keep wearing the cost.

Enough mucking around.

OPEN. THE. BLOODY. ROAD.

Watch Nick have his say 👇 and give it a share.

Haast isn’t going anywhere — and we’re certainly not shutting up. 🤘🧡

Dude has officially been called in!

Things clearly weren’t moving fast enough, so we’ve brought in reinforcements. 🚧🐕

No qualifications.
No experience.
Easily distracted by pats.
But more enthusiastic than Fulton hogan…👀

At this rate, the road will be fixed in no time. 😂

If you see Dude on the job, please don’t interrupt him… unless you’ve got pats. Pats are accepted.

FREE HAAST 🖤

🎃👻 HALLOWEEN AT THE HARD ANTLER — SATURDAY 7TH NOVEMBER 👻🎃

The road might’ve cut Haast off, but it definitely hasn’t shut us down. 💪❤️

After the absolute chaos of the last few months, we reckon Haast deserves one seriously good night!

So we’re throwing a Halloween Party + Whitebait Season Send-Off and we want the Antler PACKED. 🎃🍻

🏆 Best Costume Overall
👻 Best Kids Costume
💀 Best Couples Costume
🎤 Karaoke — talent absolutely not required 😂
🎆 Fireworks when it gets dark
🍔 Good food, cold drinks & a bloody good night

It’s been a tough run for our little town, so come have some fun, support local and remind everyone that Haast is still here, we’re still open, and it’s going to take a lot more than one road to kill our spirit. ❤️

📅 Saturday 7th November
📍 The Hard Antler

Dress up, bring the family, drag your mates along and let’s PACK THE ANTLER! 🎃🔥
