Beer is good.

One of my favourites presently is "The Green Man" from dunedin. a very nice lager. Made by an english man and a german man.

I also like the products of the Wigram brewery here in chur chur.

Also Moa beer from Nelson.

I dont drink Steinlager any more because of their rugby connection, nor Heineken for the same reason.

Small, independently owned micro breweries are where its at.

Recommend me some to try.

Emersons have a great range of beers, won lots of awards too so they must be good....

Another beer thread?


Harringtons is also good...

being a stupid loser I only drink

export dry (15 for $20)
asahi (the bar I go to stocks it, same bottle shape as export dry)
corona/ sol

beer. damn, now i want one. will have to stop by P n S on the way home methinks!

back on topic ... mm beer.. Gisbourne Gold is where its at, 3 flavours now- the original Lager, a Reserve Ale, and a Black which I have yet to try. Would seriously reccomend the first two anyway.Absolutly top notch brewery

Oh I also drink Monteiths Golden, by the jug at mighty mighty. where I shall be heading after I go see Oli. yesssss

Propeller Bitter

Founders have some nice beers, as do Tuatara. I'm loving Mac's Great White at the moment.

Well not right at this moment...

North Island Moneiths is less good than the stuff they get in the mainland

I'm loving the 0.6% one i've found in Chaffers New World...some German stuff i think. Thirst quenching, with the placebo effect that socialising with friends gives, without the hangover or inability to drive!

steinlager quenches the thirst and doesnt give hangovers.

Takawa ale is good. It's indigenous apparently.
Fouders, Emmersons are also rather tasty.
I'm liking Macs sassy red at the moment, and my homebrew.

Founders Can't say I've ever thought much of Tuatara, but love most of the Macs range.
