NZ Beer Tasting Series

Stephen Plowman of Hallertau Brewbar is hosting a series of beer tastings covering a wide range of NZ beers from different styles.  It’s a great chance for those at the northern end of the country to meet up, taste some rare and hard to find beers, and to spend some time with a brewer.

Session 1: Porters and Stouts, Sat 26 Aug at 4pm, $16

• Emerson’s London Porter


• Three Boy’s Brewery Porter


• Limburg Porter


• Invercargill Pitch Black Stout


• Emerson’s Oatmeal Stout


• Brewmoon Dark Side Stout

Stephen has also invited home brewers to bring along their own creations for feedback from the group.  It’s probably a good idea to bring your dark ales this week and compare them to some of the best examples in the country.

Further details of the beer tasting series has been posted in the RealBeer forum.

For those who attend the tasting series, please post your thoughts on Ratebeer and let other beer enthusiasts and brewers know how the beers compare.

I wish I could be there to join in the fun.
