Marchfest ticket giveaway. A part of Dunedin brewing history for sale. Where to from here for craft beer. Highlights from Great Kiwi Beer Fest. Are turbo-charged radlers the next big thing?

Having just discovered how good McLeods has become (I know I'm late), gutted Jason is leaving but could also be excuse to head back down to he Nelson region again!
Oamaru is definitely a place to visit, and Craftwork is surely the jewel in the crown. I would love to see some of the styles they brew reviewed. Perhaps we'll see some at Marchfest.....
Some tickets to marchfest would be awesome - always love visiting Nelson and what a great way to do it. Can’t wait to see where in Nelson McLeods great brewer will pop up at.
"Liberty Brewing Joekatsu Hop Popsicle alcoholic hop water (5%) now outsells most other taps (with the exception of Knife Party) 2:1" - not surprising as Knife Party is one of the very best IPAs in NZ. Even in the context of a very crowded field it is still outstanding.
NB great to see some beer banter in the comments tonight - with previous newsletters I have sometimes felt like a bit of a nerd being the sole commenter. Let it flow.
I didn't know about Marchfest until now! Nelson is a great part of the country

Joe doesn’t mind talking up his own beers — he called Knife Party the “best f#%king beer in NZ”! And yes maybe I have to spark more
