Re: We lost Eddie
I believe the recipe and the production was shifted off the coast in the mid 90s
Good thing i had given up boozing before then. I might have missed it

As of 2008 it was still being produced in the original brewery on the north-west coast of S island (Greytown?).dapope wrote:I believe the recipe and the production was shifted off the coast in the mid 90s

Did the tour. Sampled the 7 beers. NB: Sampled.
Bought a six-pack of Amber Ale for touring. Very nice!

Re: We lost Eddie
G'day all,
Am in Wanaka. It's 2pm and 7 degrees as I write this - am anxiously awaiting today's max of 11. The pic shows me hearing the sounds of brass balls clanging and monkies chattering.

Fox Glacier - a long walk to get this shot but well worth it.

Chunks of ice wash down the valley from the face of the Fox - wish I had a glass of whiskey to put this lot in. I ate the ice - yum! I figured that the ice was hundreds, maybe thousands of years old.

Having a ball.

Re: We lost Eddie
That glacier is a real magical place hey Eddie? Nothing wrong with that yellow ice Eddie, just might be from a long time extinct species.
Give the monkeys a good rub M8 you'll be ok.

Re: We lost Eddie
G'day all,
Firstly, I AM NOT DEAD!
Am in Christchurch, rain on/off max each day around 9-10. Have been to Milford, Bluff (oysters yummy), Invercargill, Dunedin and now here. Have been to many smaller places too.
Have taken a liking to Tui beer. Also Monteiths, Speights etc etc . From here, we are going to Mount Cook for a chopper ride over the glaciers, then going to do the Queenstown, Wanaka, Haast, Greymouth loop again and over the hulls to Christchurch again.
The Mitsy's going like a rocket. No signs of trouble (touching my head).
Dunno if I told you lot - the missus has joined me for a while. Ah well, was fun while it lasted...
I hereby pledge and promise to be a more regular correspondent to this forum in the future. Buh bye...
