Trying all New Zealand Craft Beer: A Beer Club

I decided that it would be a good plan to try as many beers made in NZ as possible (ignoring the stock standard fare until later). And so the challenge begins. Myself and 6 "colleagues" who have the same interests will gather once a month at a beer club and sample New Zealand Craft Beer! The initial brief is...Lets start with ale...s! I'm starting with the southern most brewery, Invercargill Brewery and their Pale Ale "Stanley Green" The rest will be revealed after the "tasting"

Thanks James

Sooo the last Meet of the year was a visit to the Speights Brewery. Unfortunately H hd some other booze up but thats life. So we went up and down the stairs, hung out in the grain silo and...finally...got to the tasting room! We got the "fresh" unpasteurised goild medal!, old dark, apricot wheat beer, distinction, and ...the two othe commercial sherbets (Thanks Dave and John for the tour). Then it was next door for a couple of handles.
Then it was porter and pilsner. Unfortunately no more pale ale! A good night had by all.
