Awards judging chairman Michael Donaldson said it was very rare for a brewery to earn four top 30 spots in the same year. The Dunedin brewery also won two highly commended awards for its New Zealand Pilsner and its German Pilsner. He said the brewery staff would have a private celebration of the awards tonight. The Supreme Award winner was Desperate Glory, by 8 Wired (Warkworth), and the Champion Cider Award winner was Hazy Apple Cider, from Peckham’s Cider (Nelson).
