I have imposed a couple of rules on myself. They, like the beers, are fluid. I'd prefer not to have to drink from more than one brewery at a time. So I would have both the Heen and Weer, followed by the Bed and Breakfast, for instance, but I doubt I'd have the Le Freak followed by the OREgasmic. Unless I was thirsty and the first one was a complete travesty and the pdubyah-o-meter failed to register a satisfaction.
So the list is looking long and inviting and just having a list means that I'm compulsively buying beers. Shame on me. The list, which contains a bit of everything, currently is;
- Brouwerij de Molen - De Molen Heen & Weer (Back & Forth)
- Brouwerij de Molen - De Molen Bed & Breakfast
- Golden Eagle Brewery - SIPA
- Invercargill Brewery - Invercargill Sa!son
- Invercargill Pitch Black Boysenberry Stout
- Dead Good Beer - Golden Ale
- Dead Good Beer - IPA
- Green Flash - Le Freak
- Chatoe Rogue - OREgasmic Ale
- Shepherd Neame Spitfire

There really is no limit to beer out there these days. Good luck on your journey through them all.
ReplyDeleteI like the "all", but the problem really is that despite there being a bazillion, and despite that in the last year or so a lot more variety being available, I'm going to run out of choice in NZ. Perhaps.
ReplyDeleteThere's a new place here in Sacramento, California, where I live. It's called Totally Wine ... which explains the massive beer selection they have. I went there today for the second time. The first time, when I walked in and saw what lay before me, I walked out ... I simply did not have the time to deal realistically with the options. I went back today. I'll be going back again. There simply is not an American craft brew, European, Mexican, etc., as well as cheap American crap ... brew that is not there. It's almost like a book store ... give me unlimited $$ and unlimited time and I'd buy everything there.
