Wellington is one of the most happening places to visit when you take a medical job in New Zealand, with bustling marketplaces, street performances and boisterous pubs lining the urban streets. When you arrive in the region, you can get started on your very own brew tour, making The Malthouse and The General Practitioner top spots on your itinerary.
Whether you're looking to sample new Kiwi brews or find the perfect light ale for an upcoming dinner party, The Malthouse has a massive selection for every beer drinker's preference. Situated at 48 Courtenay Place, the public house offers 150 hoppy libations from around the country and the world. After trying a handful of lagers, including microbrews crafted by Trappist Monks in Belgium and college professors in Christchurch, you can settle on your favorite to purchase for your night of hosting friends.
On the corner of Willis and Boulcott streets resides The General Practitioner, a place where you'll be more likely to find a beverage to warm you up than a prescription to heal your ailments. The social lounge combines quality craft beer and delectable food in a cozy setting that actually boasts a history as a doctor's office in the early 1900s.
