Well, by now all the areas should have all of the bottles, so far with only one lost bottle so thats not too bad and soon each one who entered will be holding 13 bottles of NZ finest home brew in their posession...
So now what id like to see, is everyones tasting notes, try to give some constructive feedback, should be some interesting comments I think ;o)
Id like to start it off with the only case beer ive tried - Mikes Rye Amber IPA, but unfortunately I cant remember too much of it apart from that it had an absolutely awesome hop character with a subtle rye spicyness, the rye also added a nice mouthfeel and body which made for a damn good beer! Unfortunately it was one of many on friday night ;-/ so sorry mike... Ill try and make sure I have a clear palate before I try the other beers...
