Monteiths in the sun May 24, 2007
Posted by CamdenKiwi in : London,New Zealand , trackbackNow, as any kiwi knows, Monteiths is a wonderful brew. I first tried it when I lived in Wellington in the eighties, an ale and a stout which, along with Macs Real Ale, were the only beers I was ever all that keen on. Its a small brewery on the West Coast of the South Island and, along with pineapple lumps and proper Sanitarium marmite, I figured it was one of those nostalgic memories to enjoy on trips home or persuade friends to bring over occasionally.
When I was home a couple of years ago, I was delighted to discover their Summer Ales, clearly aimed at the female end of the market and right in their demographic with yours truly.
So imagine my pleasure when I arrived at the launch party for my latest project, at Corney and Barrow at the bottom of the Lloyd’s building, to discover a tin bath filled with the stuff. Beats Pimms any day.
