Good old Invercargill Brewery aye? Coming up with the goods where there beers are in the caegory. I'll be on the lookout for some now. Good work!

it was a little unfair as Invercargills beer were the freshest, but still very good

Founders and Mata failed due to age, and oxidation, which was unfair.

Therefore it wasn't a level playing field.

But huge props to Steve "Huggy Bear" Nally for a solid range of beers

Loved following that on Twitter too, it was cool. I was rooting for Invercargill! Their beers have been exceptional on tap at the Ruakura Campus Club this year. Just really top notch. Best of luck to Steve for taking out the Supreme Brewery award this year.

We've had an Invercargill Brewery drop on at the Moutere Inn approx 70% of the time since we took over last October. It's clear why....Likewise, Mussel Inn too have had a presence at least 60% of the time too: quality, modesty, support.

And from our tasting - Biman #1 , Epic Pale Ale #2 and Renaissance Scotch Ale #3.
Well done Steve!

Luke, Can you remember the age of our beer. Was the oxidation bad? This is not what we wanted to hear as we take a lot of measures to try and reduce level of oxygen in beer. Got any other comments, always appreciated. Cheers.

Hey Tammy, I had a Artesian the other night and it was spot on. I'll let you know the batch number. Mother-in-law bought me four pack of each of that and the manuka... who said mother-in-laws are all bad.

Tammy I think it was a a best before October. We wrote out tasting notes which I have sent to Craig to send back to the brewers. I wrote the dates on with the notes, so you knew what batch we tasted.
