Boysenbeery Back
Invercargill Brewery’s iconic Boysenbeery Fruit Beer is back for the summer.
Like all Invercargill Brewery beers, Boysenbeery is all natural, and at 15% by volume it contains three times the berry of most fruit drinks marketed in New Zealand.
The high fruit content means each vintage reflects the flavours of the year’s crop, the first batch of the summer is crystal clear with a big berry nose and a gorgeous burgundy colour.
Boysenbeery won gold and best in class at the BrewNZ awards on its launch in 2008 and a bronze medal at the Australian International Beer Awards in 2010.
Boysenbeery is now sold in New Zealand, Australia and was in the launched in the USA this winter.
Invercargill Brewery was established in 1989 by father and son team Gerry & Steve Nally, producing Pitch Black, Wasp, Stanley Green, B.man and Nally’s Cider, along with series of distinctive seasonal beers.
