    @nzzp Beerspot is a great set-up and just voted one of the top 40 bars in Akl by Metro but I didn't reference them as not a brewery but yeah they too take a sizeable sum off me over the course of a year.

    Yep. Not a brewery, but arguably a better model as all yo uhave to do is drink the profits and quality control 40 different beers 🙂 Also, lots of good food trucks... outstanding.

    if you're in that neck of the woods, head down to El Humero in Takapuna and eat their short rib. I venture from civilisation over the bridge to eat it. It's that good.

    A pity none of us south of the Bombays have likely ever tried it.

    Just had a couple of beers with erstwhile poster FCC at Akasha in Five Dock in Sydney. Probably my favourite craft brewery.

    @bovidae That's great news for McLeod's, but I can't say I care much for that particular beer.

    They've done some really nice brews though, especially the one with the trial hop from NZ Plant & Food.

    Must be a hell of a drop to beat Panhead APA!

    Saw it for $28/dozen the other day.

    @tim I've only had their IPA and a Saison IIRC, the former was pretty good.

    Sorry. All of a sudden I've got two mortgages. Lion Brown is a stretch these days.

    @mariner4life 🙂

    Nah, I check it occasionally but liked both of those stories more than usual.

    Sessionable craft beer is something of an Oxymoron when you chop about 20 Panhead APAs like I did one night when the Lions were here last year. For a bloke who never used to get hangovers my head ached like fuck the next day.

    Anyone tried Hop Federation's Lager?

    It's only 14 on the IBU scale, so might be a bit too light in that regard.

    I would probably like it then. I'm finding the hoppier they are the less I am liking them.

    Panhead blue label is the perfect beer for me in terms of Craft. (and I realise that most crafty guys would find that too mild, I imagine)
