946: Monteith's | Black


 The brewery: (from Wikipedia) "Monteith's Brewery Company was originally a family-owned brewing company until it was bought by DB Breweries. It continued to brew its beers on the West Coast of New Zealand until DB decided that the cost of keeping production there was no longer viable. The Greymouth brewery was closed on 22 March 2001, but reopened four days later following a public outcry. The beers are now produced in Auckland, and Timaru as well as Greymouth. 

The beer: "Crafted from a blend of five premium malts to create a complex depth of flavours with dominant coffee notes......Crisper than sweet darks and smoother than harsh stouts. Perfect for the moment when you step in from the cold."
