There are two breweries in #Oamaru... One has better beer (and tasty Belgian fries with mayo), the other one has more & better food options.
As the Belgian inspired one was closed and it was dinner time, it had to be Scotts aka the other brewery 😁
Their NZ #pilsner is hoppy and refreshing. Tasty combo with the pizza and loaded fries.

CW: Did God send a message to Shane Jones?
Shane Jones spoke to 250 party faithful in Oamaru yesterday, promising that NZ First would abolish the Waitangi Tribunal, scrap regional councils and take the country out of ‘‘climate change hysteria’’.
Within 12 hours Oamaru flooded because of climate change.
Coincidence?

New at my Patreon... I catch a train from Dunedin along a beautiful coastline to Oamaru - where steampunk-infused Victorian-era architecture lies in wait:

Mon Dieu! For some reason this is turning into an annual tradition 🍻 #Untappd tells that the last time I had this one was 1 year ago-ish, almost on the same day.
This Belgian Dubbel by Craftwork tastes great: sweetness, dried fruit and almonds. Def need to order this one more often. Why wait until April 2027? 😆

Long time no see, Poodlefaker.
Another tasty brew by Craftwork 🍻 A must-visit when in #Oamaru ✅ Add it to your Kiwi #RoadTrip"Saison Poodlefaker is our Christmas beer. It is ruby-coloured , and balanced with noble hops, liberally spiced, and Southern Rata honey added at the end of the boil.
In Belgium, Christmas beers are rich and heavy for the cold months. Ours is lighter for a N.Z. summer Christmas." -
Today's good news story from NZ involves little blue penguins (kororā). I don't know what's in the water, but the Oamaru colony is having a bumper breeding season.
They'll break the previous record of 570 chicks in a season. So far 440 chicks have fledged and another 300 are ready to pop out. Penguins for everyone!
Go little kororā!

Does anyone have a good source for #knitting #wool (merino or merino blend) in #nz ? Something nice to work with and wear, good for a novice, and reasonably priced. I'll need about 800g of 8-10ply. I'm planning on making a sweater and the pattern calls for gauge of 10 cm on a 4.5 mm needle = 18 stitches. I've looked at some at #RibbonRose and at a shop when I was in #Oamaru. I really like some of them but I don't have much experience and having a hard time justifying the cost.

I know it's a long long shot, but The Night Circus is one of our all-time favorite books and this event looks amazing. Is there any chance anyone has an extra 1 or 2 tickets to The Night Circus at the #Oamaru #SteamPunk Festival that they would sell us? Either Friday or Saturday night. (Much less interested in the matinee) We would be eternally grateful.

Always a pleasure to drop by Craftwork in #Oamaru for a Belgian-style brew and "Belgian fries with double mayo". 😋
🍻
This version of their #tripel is a little bit sweeter than the OG but has nice spiced biscuit flavours as added bonus."Oude Relic - Our super Saison Tripel.... The French saison yeast we love with a strong grain bill, creating this unusual strong amber-coloured ale. Great for cellar aging."

When your #CraftBeer is just as excited to be back. 😆 So good to see the return of Craftwork's Sacre Bleu BA #Tripel. 🇳🇿
Just have to keep in mind that several of their brews have that gusher issue. 😁
Cheers to good times. 🍻 Happy fanboy.

@dialogcrm I received a 3-month Whitesone cheese subscription as a Christmas present last year and was very impressed with their range. Some lovely cheeses and I now look out for them in the supermarket, especially when they are on special.

Craftwork never disappoints with their Belgium-inspired brews. 🍻 This Karamu Creek - #Kriek - is tasty as. 😋 Heaps of cherries, lovely tartness/sourness.
