Down Again - The Superjesus

Dunno if anyone has mentioned it, but Zombie Strippers is pretty crap-tastic!

Cheers Pommy, I'll check that shop out. Unfortunately I haven't really found anywhere that cheap for good imported beers. Liquorland Forrest Hill has a pretty good range, imported and NZ craft. Countdown Newmarket had an okay range last time I was there. Also the liquor store behind the tactics...

Run Daddy Run - Fun Lovin Criminals

Hi Pommy, there are some homebrew clubs around NZ that do competitions etc.... Might be a help... here's a link to the Auckland Guild of Winemakers and Brewers http://sites.google.com/site/agwbnewzealand/home As for figuring out different tastes, for hops, go to your local liquor store, get a...

Here's a couple of options, http://www.nzhops.co.nz/ , but they look commercial, so may not be interested in small orders, or else there's http://www.libertybrewing.co.nz , but I don't know if they ship overseas.

G'day mate, and welcome, I'm sure you'll find a load of good info on here!

I haven't noticed any reduction in carbonation with plastic bottles, and I have had some that have been in there a few months, I would hazard a guess that you wouldn't lose much before the 12-month mark. I do still use glass for long-term storage, and usually drink any that is in plastic within...

My recommendation is to get a couple of bits of toast, butter them (very important!) then thinly spread the vegemite on. I think this is where a...

Very interesting to hear. We have the same scenario playing out here in NZ with the big brewers sales declining. Of course they're all (well both, there's really only 2) firing back with their own "craft beer" brands, of which Macs has some pretty good beers. It's great to see the movement...

Yeah, it's the clean-up that gets me down. I wish it wasn't necessary. Perhaps I just have to look at it as part and parcel of brewing, not "work" associated with it! Bottle anxiety is one thing I don't have. I've got about 220 glass 750ml and 60 plastic 750ml ones.... I don't think I'll ever...

A good cheese (don't know if you'll be able to find it) is Dutch Nettle cheese, and also Cumin cheese (I get them from a dutch shop near where I live...). Definitely hearing the olives too!
