Brew/pub guide
Hi folk,
I think I have mentioned that we run a B&B here in Picton and of course we get guests from all over the world who sadly believe that Tui/Steinlager and all the rest represent what NZ beer is all about. I do buy some craft beers from the independant breweries in riggers and try to do a bit of beer evangelism where possible. My question is though, has anyone produced a flyer or give-away guide to NZ craft brews and pubs that we could distribute to put travellers right? As we all know, it would be considered a travesty if visitors to NZ were unable to readily procure famed NZ wines, yet the glorious beers we do have suffer virtual 'black market' status. We all know the tied house problems we have, but a guest tap or two in a pub would help everybody. Anyhow, it would be great if there is some sort of guide brochure that we can lay our hands on because it gets a bit long-winded to try and explain verbatum to each beer lover where to forage for good beer. Any tips most welcomed.
Cheers,
Ian

Wow, that's brilliant, Kier. Just what we need. Now there should be such a thing for the other areas of NZ - down South and up North!
What's the Secret Garden?

We could have used a customised google map - but .........it would end up looking like a customised google map. The aim behind the beertourism idea is to promote Nelson/Marlborough brewing industry as the arts and wine industries has done.
