All beer drunk in The Hobbit movies was custom made by New Zealand brewers!

Beer plays a central role in the beginning of The Hobbit. Balin, the second dwarf to arrive at Mr Baggins' hobbit-hole, declines Bilbo's offer of tea, saying: "A little beer would suit me better".

As more dwarfs come through the perfectly round green door, "some called for ale and some for porter", although the great wizard, Gandalf, takes only a little red wine. Fortunately, Bag End has cellars for storing beer barrels, as well as numerous pantries for bread and pies.

The beer drunk during the filming of the Hobbit was custom made by New Zealand brewers. It was a 1% dark stout called "Sobering Thought".

It seems this beer is tasty and it might be worth it to try it out on your next visit at New Zealand!
