Speight's

Speight's Gold Medal Ale is the traditional beer of students at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand. Speight's is an ale style of beer, with a more distinctive taste than most commercial beers.

Traditionally a very regional brew, the wild popularity of the "Southern Man" series of advertisements has led to Speight's undergoing something of a boom and it can now be found throught the country.

The Speight's brewery also makes Distinction Ale and Pale Ale, but neither comes close to its Gold Medal Ale in popularity.
