Just a quick note to say that I have not forgotten my beer buying blog!

These last few weeks have been madness of the best kind... Emerson's Appreciation week, Epic Launches and the Twelve Pints of Xmas.

As such I just haven't had time to blog my purchases, and at the moment kegs are not even lasting a day given the rush of locals. Soooo... to make a long story short - we have amazing beers, they are changing rapidly, at this time of year you just need to come down and check it out for yourself!

Firstly, apologies on missing out a blog last week but as you all may know it was Emerson's Appreciation week, and that is exactly what it was! We had a a few other beers coming and going but at the end of it it was all about Emersons.

Moving right along from one wonderful brewery to the next, tomorrow we welcome Luke and Kelly from Epic for the South Island launch of Epic 'Larger', an imperial pilsner. It will be one night only… expect Epic tap domination (7 of their range for the evening) as well as bottles of the new Coffee and Fig Stout.

Heading into the final weeks of November!

I received an email of what's available this week and i've got to say its exciting to see the arrivals of Golden's, Blondes and the like… Summer is coming!

Three Boys Oyster Stout
Of course I love and look forward to a summer of thirst quenching ales but before I do, I will happily enjoy a pint or two of this magnificent stout. I did include it in last weeks blog but it did not hit the taps…. This is the last of the Oyster Stout for this year! *ON TAP NOW

There are a lot of exciting things happening in the beer world at our little pub! Next month will kick off with the 'Emerson's Appreciation Week - $7 pints', then the following week (8th December) expect to see Luke and Kelly from Epic for a one night only 'Epic Larger' release and of last but not least there will be the '12 pints of Xmas' too…. (more info to come).

Eeeek, this week got away on me… again.

So I had this big, interesting line up but due to my terrible time keeping, we have sold a lot of it already! So instead, you get a quick update of what to expect this weekend.

Sorry again, I will be far more on to it next week!

On tap RIGHT NOW

Sprig and Fern 3 Berry Cider
This is totally delicious and when served with ice makes for the perfect summer drink!

8wired Big Smoke and Hopwired

This week we have some old favorites as well as a first ever!
I have lots of other lovely treats in the chiller too, but to avoid long waits I have shortened my list to the beers that WILL be on this week… Enjoy!

Liberty and Craig Bowen (BeerNZ) Bowenbrau
Tomorrow night we will all have the chance to try this new beer!
It is a very limited release made in collaboration by Joe from Liberty and Craig from BeerNZ… suitably named BowenBrau.

Hope to see you all tomorrow afternoon!

Apologies on the lateness of my blog this week. As some of you may know, Steve has been on leave due to knee surgery, thus resulting in me being even busier than normal!

I am glad to say the surgery went well and he is already hobbling around the pub, not surprising though, huh!

Another terrific line up for you all to enjoy!

I have tried to put them in order of what you are likely to see first… Don't blame me if it doesn't quite work out, but hey, at least i'm trying!

Mussel Inn Captain Cooker

A lovely, mixed bag this week… Enjoy and cheers!

Croucher Low Rider
Croucher's newest offering - a super hoppy low alcohol ale (2.7%)

Please to all reading this, try this beer with an open mind. A Beer DOES NOT have to be over 5% to be worthwhile and wonderful!

Here we have a tasty, session ale that is somewhat responsible… Sounds pretty great to me!
