Just saw a couple of boxes of 20 assorted beers and cider for $24. Bargain? I bought one. Got it home and opened the box with a sigh of disappointment considering the beers they have in store.

Six bottles of DB
Five bottles of Asahi
Three bottles of Carlsberg
One can of Kilkenny
Five bottles of DB Export
And a partridge in a pear tree

The first bottle I pulled out was sticky like it had been in a box that was dropped, so I got them all out one by one to give them a wipe. Oh, that DB Export looks a funny colour I thought to myself. DB Export fucking citrus. At 2% I wouldn't even call it beer. The only saving grace is there was no Speights in there but fuck me, hardly going to be a magical mystery tour is it. Luckily I grabbed a couple of double hopped IPA's that were on special at the same time. The wife can have the girly drinks.

Bugger. My last one had some fucking 'light ice' in it, that shit is terrible.

Azkle's on the money, sink em in one.

To wit, now drinking a Garage Project 'Hapi Days'. Fark me this is nice. (http://garageproject.co.nz/collections/beers)

Petes Shed Sav. Turns out it is Peter Yealand (SP?) export Sav - not usually available in NZ but they were over supplied and a local purchased bulk and running them out cheap ($9.99) I took a punt a few weeks ago on a bottle.

I like my Sav's and rate this one highly - in fact I went back and purchased a half dozen more............

Fuckers got me. Good marketing really :-)



Also as a side note - more fuckers if they export the better stuff out of NZ.

Imported "amber beer". From tahiti

Sweet, malty, dark, hoppy. Not bad, though i'd say oversweet and a drier finish wouldn't hurt any.

Worth a go.

beer.

Literally. These meatheads called it beer.

All the way from te aro st garage project in wellingtown (must be drewpys mates)

overhopped (srsly EVERYONE you cant hide bad beer behind more fucken hops. )
Citrus notes. Clean, medium finish.
"pilsner malt, saaz hops, czech yeast"
4.8%, $4/can. Wouldnt buy again unless there was heaps and it was cheap.

this czech yeast is another one thats cropping up a bit. Not sure yet how it affects the flavour, seems to always be hoppy beers it's in so maybe that's what it's suited to.

ive reeeeeeeeelly been enjoying the monteiths range. Even their fruitys, summer ale and radler (less so the radler, but theres a time and a place) other than that, their bohemian pils (red?) is a solid beer and 5%. and original ale. I like my abvs up, and i think the ale is a 4.2, but nice anyway.

There's always time for whiskey. Although recently i've been buying stupidly overpriced rum, with about 50% success.

Have finished the remaining beers, it's too hot for red wine and if I open a bottle of french bubbles I'll have to drink it all so the rest doesn't get wasted, nothing to go with the vodka and it's actually warm enough so a glass of sav will have to do.

red beersies:
monteiths is overhopped
boundary is high abv, quite strong flavour, quite drinkable though
macs is a good balance, much better session bevvy

russian standard vodka
it's been long since i've drunk vodka in earnest, but this stuff is a) nice and b) inexpensive.

still not a fan of scotch.

[Akzle]

have had also, an APA not sure whether was "aotearoa" PA or "american" PA but was a kiwi brew with kiwi hops, and hit that tasty tasty blend. wish i could remember which it was.

also been drinking a bit of "desperados" - made in norway, would you believe. beer flavoured with tequila, fifteen odd buck a sixer. 6%abv something a bit different, and a bit tasty.

Had my eye on that for some months now - waiting for a 'special' - can't bring myself to drop $8 on one bottle. However I was thinking the other night as I stood looking at it if I was in a bar I'd be paying $12 for a bloody Corona or similar ....... see I have almost justified it.

Anyway, I am a fan of the Tuatara beers - just tried the Sauvinova tonight. Very nice. Lucky for me there are 5 more in the fridge :-) and a pack of their Pilsner.

Cos i'm a skinflint picked up a box of BRUER batch brewed draught beer in 330ml cans ( well it says beer on the box) to try last night. Did I get the wrong batch?

For me a little lacking in palate, tinny sort of taste as if been aged in the can, a watery draught that quenches the thirst, a small note of hops in a glass of water. Have tasted worse that were undrinkable, but still a low score on this one.

(For the beer lovers the Liberty didn't work for me, nowhere near either of the Tuatara APAs. The Double Trouble is always a winner but has the tendency to bring the night to an early close.)

Panhead are canning (as well as bottling) so I tried a couple, a Herman Holeshot hopfenweisse (I guess that's a wheat beer) nice, inoffensive, 6% and a Hardtail Henry oaked stout, much more to my liking, 8%.

Not that it makes any difference but the cans have some pretty neat graphics. Larger than standard cans at 440ml.

Did a tour of the local brewery in Rarotonga when we were there recently. When I say 'tour', we actually stood in one of the two rooms that made up the brewery while the boss man did his presentation. Well worth it too (and the samples were generous).

Very interesting hearing the story of how they work in an unfriendly environment for craft beer. He told a story about how they got some expensive piece of German made switchgear ($10,000?) when they first set up but that because of the humidity it corroded to to the point of being useless within a year. They went to a local plumber and he fixed them up with a switch which was made from a soccer ball with valves sitting in a container. When the pressure grew big enough the ball expanded and physically tripped a switch which caused something to happen and the pressure in the ball to drop. When it got to a low pressure point it tripped another switch and started inflating the ball again. The system is still working 9 years later. That's an approximation of the story anyway. As I said, the samples were generous so possibly my recollection of the story may not be perfect.

It was 9pm when the drinking was taking place, I don't drink as a rule but yesterday I had three Waikato stubbies/one Port (not as much in the bottle as I thought, need to replace) and two Baileys.
Apparently pubs/clubs/bars cannot advertise beer by the pint (Fair Go last night) but it's 3 quarts for $20 at our local on a Wednesday. Not that could drink that much at a sitting.
