When the team behind the Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular asked the guys to create a special beer for their 2012 festival, they started by searching for musical inspiration from their Australian homeland. The tunes led them on a wild conceptual ride but they ended up settling on this hugely floral India Pale Ale that is “dry-leafed” with a massive load of Earl Grey Blue Flower tea.

About the brewery

We met the good guys from Yeastie Boys at the Craft Beer Rising beer festival in Feb 2015 and had to get hold of some of their great beer. The Yeastie Boys - Stu McKinlay and Sam Possenniskie are the dynamic duo of New Zealand's craft beer scene. They burst onto the beer landscape with two trophies for their flagship porter Pot Kettle Black at BrewNZ 2009 and have remained firmly ensconced there ever since. The Yeastie Boys say that they stay ahead of the game by being food and drink lovers first and foremost and postmodern craft beer cult heroes on the side.
