A garage of beerful delights, we were offered a free sample of beer brewed with wild hops that had been left to ferment in a large open tray. It tasted interesting. From the outside this shop looks unassuming and you wouldn’t know it existed unless someone has tipped you off. Take some large empty vessels with you to fill up as they aren’t licensed to sell as a bar.
The dudes in front of me sampled every beer there before settling on what they'd buy. No dramas, no suspicion, just a willingness to make sure they bought what they wanted. I tasted three, again without question and then got another delicious, previously (to me) unheard of beer that I'll be buying again. Magic place.
Imagine walking out of Galbraith's and thinking... "I'd love a flagon of a delicious craft beer I've never tried before to take home and enjoy on my deck." Well, pop across the road and amble down the lane just past the Powerstation and you'll find this new flagon refilling depot called Hopscotch. It's just opened and has 12 taps offering a range of New Zealand and International craft beers like Mike's, Epic, Hallertau, West Coast, Crouchers and many more... Hugh is friendly, knowledgable and happy to let you sample before you buy. For now he is cash only, but no doubt he'll sort that out shortly.
