Do kiwis have good beer? What brands are best? What imports do kiwis get? Do kiwis love beer as much as rugby?

Is there such a thing as bad beer !!!
Yep.. Goes by the name of CoorsOriginally Posted by StevieD
No we just call that American beer (kidding before I get a red card)
Back in the 80s, my dad bought generic beer from the local supermarket chain. It came in a white can with "Beer" in black letters and you need to puncture it to drink it. I'm going to go out on a limb and classify it as bad beer.Originally Posted by StevieD
Suppose you could call all those drinks in flashy looking cans with Germanic sounding names and having the same strength and taste as gnats pee as bad beer
Yes. Depends on your taste, hubby like Montieths Celtic Ale, Steinlager and will drink anything I buy Tui, Lion Red etc Seen Stella, Amstel, Tuborg, Becks, Carlsberg, Guiness, Oranjieboom, Fosters (enough?). Yes!Originally Posted by upnorthkyosa

Hope that answers your question rather than debating the merits of respective beers like the men!
no labatts,sleemans,molson?
Yes Steve and its called Lion Red Like drinking water as it comes in at 4%. Must admit i stay away from the kiwi brew apatfrom Monteiths and stay with what i know like Stella, Becks,Grolsch as you can get all the euro beers here. Slightly more exspensive, but at least i am enjoying it.Originally Posted by StevieD

Loads of good NZ beers & you can buy many beers from around the world in the supermarkets & bottle shops.
My faves are Monteiths (pretty much all of them) but Summer Ale, Radler (lime flavour) and Winter Ale.
Mac's (the new summer one which is organic - yum!)
Speights, Tui and Steinlager, am also partial to a Loaded Hog's brewery wheat beer.
There's loads of boutique beers as well which are very nice... too many good NZ beers to try to worry about finding beers that you used to drink from home... although most pubs tend to serve Stella & you can find all the usual bottled beers as well.
