Any trip with beer is a good trip!

There are loads and loads nowadays. To many to recommend, but some of my favorites are;

PANHEAD - Vandal and everything else
LIBERTY - Yaikima Monster, Citra but evrything they do
GARAGE PROJECT - Death from above, Pernicious Weed ... to name a few

I haven't looked to be fair, but what are some good craft beers Aussie is exporting...I'll have a look. My local liquor store has 6 taps on constant circulation with plans to add more for Growlers and Flagons. In the last year they have extended the fridge and now there is 50/50 craft to regular brews. The range is massive. I'm sure you'll find your way, but only select stores offer large selections to choose from.

I will be staying in Auckland for 6 weeks so I will be checking out the beers around there, I have tried beers from Epic, Stoke, Tuatara, Boundry Rd and the beers from The Mount Brewing Co. I will defiantly checking out 8 wired, Yeastie Boys and Garage Project. There heaps of good Craft beer here in Oz to many to mention just here in Brisbane there are 3 craft breweries some worth checking out are the beers from Brewcult, Pirate life, Feral, Four pines, Stone and Wood.

Nelson Sauvin is one of my favourite hop strains to use. I find it lends well to adding a lot of aroma through dry hopping. The aroma can be somewhat polarising though.

I got on to this strain years ago after being impressed with the Knappstein Lager which features this strain.

A single hop nelson sauvin "wine" type beer is on my summer horizon and I'll post results when I get to it.
I've used moteuka and rawuake? in saisons before replacing noble varieties and was stoked with results.
FWIW Ella hop from oz is fn shithot. Try S&W Garden Ale or Ironhouse Red Ella-both single hopped. Really sessionable and clean and subtle in its floral/citru tones. I've AG brewed the S&W Garden a cuople of times was so happy with
