@taniwharugby @nzzp Cos you had @MN5 on ignore I'm guessing?
I know who I’ve annoyed on here, don’t think it’s either of them.
... so far ...
Definitely not through lack of trying though

I have found the Lost 43 brewery in Stratford a couple of weeks back. Their beers a ver agreeable. Have enjoyed Patea Clear-Pilsener, Lord Nelson-NZ pale Ale and Lost track-APA.
Very enjoyable rugby watching beers!I gather you had a few. Enough to get the name mixed up anyway.
Forgotten 43 .
Their Lost Track APA and Black Gold Milk Stout were very agreeable with me when up that way last year.

There is so much bullshit on that chart.
I guess they only ranked actual 330ml bottles, not averaging out for options, such as in Qingdao China - where one may prefer to buy Tsingtao by the kilogram, served in a plastic supermarket shopping bag, for approximately fuck-all RMB per kilo. -

Some are dirt cheap, others very pricey

damn - I've just learned Brothers Beer has opened a new bar in my hood.
My poor old liver - that's now 64 different craft beers available within easy walking distance
As for the beverage and culinary offering, there are 15 taps of Brothers Beer craft beer from the Mount Eden brewery, ... Juke Joint BBQ’s specialty is Southern Style cuisine, with a sharing menu featuring slow-cooked meats and vegetables, such as 14-hour smoked beef brisket, tender spiced lamb shoulder, and smoked and fried chicken. -

Nice in some ways! To be honest, I've found their beer to be quite disappointing and grossly overpriced. I bought a 1L jug last time I was at their city works depot , and was charged over forty bucks! For a litre!
I'm voting with my feet, supporting non hipster bars now

The Southern X in welly charges 48 bucks for a jug of Craft beer but it’s one of those big ones which can easily fill four handles with a bit left over. 40 bucks for a litre is ridiculous.

Handle? One (sniffs first) drinks their craft beer from a tasting glass surely?

yeah, for a pitcher of 2.2L or so I get that. But a litre? FFS.

The price of drinking out is starting to get ridiculous for sure. All the breweries at the Newtown festival had the price about right, 8-10$ for a plastic cup. When you’re paying 14-15$ a handle it gets pretty hard to justify.
I had actually just had a quiet one with a visitor just before coming in here Apologies to all FORGOTTEN 43. Still a nice drop!
