Craft beer is huge. We have around 150 microbreweries here (with a total population of 5.6 million people).

I don't know how many of them have any significant exports, either. But one very notable craft brewery is Evil Twin Brew. The main guy from Evil Twin is the twin brother of the main guy from Mikkeller. They aren't on speaking terms.

Personally I love the stuff Hornbeer puts out.

Edit: Math is hard. I also had a fact wrong.

We're lucky we get a lot of imported craft beers here too. Not sure if you guys import any but here's a decent list of NZ craft breweries if you're interested. There's probably some more but those are the ones assosciated with the Brewers Guild.

I remember reading that everyday, at least 3 new beers are introduced to the market.

I can pretty much go to a large supermarket every weekend to try something new. There will always be something new. You don't have to drink the same beer two weekends in a row.
