    @nzzp I do love a IIPA, hardly a session beer though which makes it difficult when I return to warmer climes.

    So I find myself in a pub in Newmarket, craft beer and neck beards everywhere. I just asked for a Lion Red but having to settle for an Epic.

    Yep. Then Saint Alice bar for more drinks the Soul Bar for dinner. Honestly, I’d rather stayed at one place, drank lager and had some chips. First world problems I know.

    First world problems indeed 🙂 Lumsden's not bad - not as good as it was I think, but still decent enough. Getting around Auckland at rush hour is not straightforward ... and Lime scooters seem a good idea after a few pints

    I spent New Years in the Far North so stopped off in Waipu to pick up a selection of McLeod's. I was curious to try the Paradise Pale Ale after it won the big award recently. All very nice and luckily the local supermarket now stocks a good variety of their beers.

    Latterly I have been drinking a range of hazy IPAs. Drinkable but not really to my taste.

    Unfortunately the brewery itself wasn't open and I wasn't waiting around until 11:30 am so ended up walking up the road to the liquor store.

    @taniwharugby Yes. I bought 6 different types of beer (2 bottles each).

    Great Migration
    Paradise
    Longboarder
    Traders
    Heathen
    Far North Chili Pils

    I had previously tried Mussel Inn's Heat Rash chilli beer which has a full chilli in the bottle.

    Going to the BBall this Sunday. Courtside seats and all the Hell Pizza and Panhead ( all ranges ) I can drink.

    I trust I'll be in all your thoughts and prayers.

    @Bovidae I thought the Chilli Pils had a great taste, but wouldnt want more than a couple...I love me chillis, but it didnt agree with me.

    @MN5 am sure you will survive bro.

    Cos the genius's who run the caketin think hotdogs and flat mid strength monteiths are a worthy substitute.

    @MN5 Yeah caketin is in such a great position, but the catering is so poor.

    NZ rugby stadia really cater to the lowest denominator. When I went to Wembley for the football they had bars and restaurants along with the usual greasy fare. Same at the G. Catch up NZ!

    I'm always game to try anything spicy and grow Carolina Reapers amongst other chillies.

    How to Make Tea from Beer Hops

    While hops may be a brewers best friend, they aren't just for brewing beer. In fact, one of the most popular uses is to make hop tea. Here's how you do it.
