How it Works
1. Get Beer
We send a box of 12 different beers to your home or workplace. Rare and interesting beers which you won't find in your local bottle shop. Don't drink them yet though, they need to last you 12 weeks.
2. Drink Beer
Every Thursday (at around 7:30) Beer Jerks around the country drink the same beer. We'll have sent you the story of the brewery and the beer along with tasting notes. If they feel like it they Instagram, Tweet or Facebook their reviews.
3. Repeat weekly
This one is pretty self explanatory...
THIS WEEK'S BEER
Isthmus | No Man's Land
So, the thing is - no-one can really agree what an XPA is. Some brewers believe the 'X' to mean 'extra pale' or light in body, while others believe it means 'extra hoppy'. It's a bit of a no man's land (see what they did there?). The first example of the descriptor was in a beer from American brewery Deschutes which was made with an eXperimental hop that gave it it's name. This XPA from Isthmus is hoppier and less malty than a Pale Ale but not as alcoholic or bitter as an American IPA. Hamish used a NZ Pilsner malt to give the beer a light body that allows the hops to shine. The pale, straw coloured XPA is very easy drinking with a clean, crisp, dry finish. The heavy handed dosing of hops brings loads of beautiful citrus aroma and flavours - we get lots of lemon peel and grapefruit aroma and flavours.
CUSTOMERS TESTIMONIALS
I'm no beer connoisseur but after one round I'm almost feeling beer savvy. Just don't drink them all in one week. It'll leave you feeling left out. #rookieerror #wantmorebeer #jealous #cantwaitfornextdelivery #yougetthepicture

I love the tasting notes and food matches each week and have become quite knowledgeable already. I even know more than some of the guys at work now! Very impressed with the Beer Jerk set up. I totally recommend Beer Jerk to anyone interested in craft beers. Thanks Beer Jerk!

Beer Jerk Thursdays! Quickly becoming my favourite day of the week. I'm now deep in the beer matrix and a world of beer I had no idea existed. Yeah!

We think it's cool. But then you probably can't rely on our testimony, we made this whole thing up.
