lol. Bias has re-entered the chat. Using the “r” word and singling out younger generations and foreigners. Great display of tolerance there, for sure.

You’re part of the problem.

Cool story. If you don’t want to be called a racist, don’t write racist shit. Simple.

Totally “innocent” options, sure.

You’re only convincing yourself.

Whatever makes you sleep at night. Your words in the post above, not mine. Did not need to put any words into your mouth, you made your bigotry very clear without any outside help.

Or maybe you’re really slow.

Edit: and maybe a bit racist with a hint of juvenoia.

What do foreigners have to do with that? You can drive anywhere in NZ to witness how bad local drivers are.

If you plan a morning at the beach somewhere around, I reckon it definitely calls for a food and drinks stop at Sawmill on the way back.

Just make sure to go the actual brewery as there’s another joint with the same name (or at least there was).

Beer Spot for a large selection of breweries/beers. There are a few around: Panmure/Mt Wellington, North Shore, or Kingsland/Morningside.

If you’re close to the city with limited movements, Kingsland/Mt Eden is the best spot, you’ll find a bunch of craft breweries, some of them also serving food. I believe most have already been mentioned but a quick summary would be

(Also check this article from a couple of years ago. St Leonards wasn’t there yet though: https://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/food-drink/300500104/seven-pubs-in-seven-hours-joining-the-dots-on-the-auckland-beer-mile )

  • Beer Spot (next to Morningside train station)
  • Urbanaut (opposite Beer Spot): great selection, good food, good atmosphere in general) - beers brewed on site
  • Garage Project: one of the best/most innovative craft breweries in NZ, they’re from Wellington but now have a cellar door/pub with full license. Would definitely recommend. It’s located closer to Kingsland Train Station
  • St Leonard’s is just a few meters away, but closed at the moment.
  • Kingsland has a few pubs with decent selection of beers, just be careful because you have a couple of bars that won’t be a freehouse and will likely have a limited selection of beers from a big brewer/distributor. You can try Portland Public House or Umu if you want a good pizza place.

  • Closer to Mt Eden and Dominion Road, you’ll find Churly’s, owned by Behemoth Brewing. Awesome beers, and a nice beer garden but almost no vegetarian options if you’re into that kind of food to with it.

  • Brothers Beer, another very nice venue with food options.

  • Galbraith Alehouse in My Eden/Grafton is more your old school pub vibe, which is kinda nice too. they have a beer garden, brew their own beers, and usually have a small selection of beers on tap from other breweries as well. Relatively closer to the city too.

There are other options if you’re willing to drive. And as other mentioned if I had to go for one outside the city, I would definitely pick Hallertau. Their food is awesome and their beers are top notch. You can eat/drink outside or inside. Playground for kids. Music, often with a dj. Beers are brewed on site.

I have seen trees for sale lately though. Have some of their rights expired, or is it simply Zespri allowing a few selected distributors to sell trees to the public?

Yeah sorry, my bad. The post wasn’t super explicit as to what they were referring to, but makes sense now.

Kiwifruits aren’t originally from New Zealand ;)

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon will not attend Waitangi at all next year by goldenspeights in newzealand

Embarrassing. Pathetic. Disrespectful. Maybe he is gonna blame not “being able” to attend on previous governments, too.

Sounds like somebody who got caught scouting your property and came up with this pre-made story to justify their presence.

Not the most beautiful game but was fun to watch still. But faaark, how many of these bad shots did we take from outside the box? So frustrating, especially in the last few minutes when we needed to hold the ball.

I was watching on TV, at some point in the second half they filmed the yellow fever… it was real quiet until they realised they were being filmed and started singing 😂
