The Great Australasian Beer Spectacular (GABS) Hot 100 list is voted for by New Zealand craft beer drinkers and is in its second year in New Zealand, with voters nominating their five favourite beers of 2017 from more than 730 choices.

Wellington brewery Garage Project took out second and third place respectively with their Death from Above speciality IPA and Pernicious Weed Double IPA - the third place ranking also a repeat of the 2016 result.

Garage Project also repeated their overall success of last year, again scoring 19 beers in the top 100 - the most dominant brewer in the list.

"They're a formidable brewery," Williams said.

"I'm very impressed they backed their 19 last year with 19 this year."

Auckland-based Behemoth came in second with 13 beers, followed by 8 Wired with ten.

While the majority of the Hot 100 picks were hop driven India Pale Ales (IPAs) and Pale Ales, Williams said other styles were more noticeable than in the 2016 results.

"Certainly in the top ten hop driven beers have dominated but through the rest of the list we have seen new styles coming through," he said.

Stouts in particular were polling stronger, as well as sour beers and goses​.

All but one of the top ten beers was an IPA/Pale ale, with 8 Wired's Cucumber Hippy Berliner Weisse​ beer coming in at number nine.

"I think there is a lot more variety in New Zealand," he said.

Williams said he was especially proud to see seven beers on the list that started their lives as special brews for the GABS Beer Festival held in Auckland, including the Hot 100's biggest climber, Funk Estate's Jungle Boogie sour, up 71 places to number 16.

The top ten beers as voted for by Kiwi Craft beer drinkers are Supercharger (Panhead), Death from Above, Pernecious Weed (Garage Project), Hop Zombie (Epic), Party & Bullshit (Garage Project), Armageddon (Epic), The Kush, Citra (Liberty), Cucumber Hippy Berliner (8 Wired) and Hapi Daze (Garage Project).
