Powerful and precise, Green Beret packs an arsenal of citrus and pine flavours with a skilfully controlled explosion of hoppy goodness. Mac's Green Beret IPA is named after the assertive punch of the US hops, but like any good soldier it also knows the virtues of discipline and restraint. The result is a well-balanced IPA that has a complex and rewarding flavour profile.
Wherever you go in the world, it's always refreshing to see something you recognise. That green bottle, the red star, the smiling 'e'... like an instant welcome from an old friend. Cold, fresh, high quality Heineken. Enjoyed near and far since 1873.
Mac's Gold is the talisman of the Mac's family, an all malt lager brewed naturally with hints of citrus and sweet malts. Mac's Gold is the first, the original, the supreme naturally brewed all malt lager. Unbroken and therefore unfixed since 1983 thanks to its delicate caramel sweetness and crisp, clean aftertaste. Connoisseurs will note that the mid-palate bitterness and hints of citrus have not been tinkered with.
Steinlager Pure uses a selection of New Zealand's finest hops, including Pacific Jade. With it's clean natural fresh taste, and with no additives and preservatives, Steinlager Pure is perfectly balanced from the light New Zealand hop nose to the crisp clean finish.
Do your eyes deceive you or is that a ghostly galleon laden with a bounty of juicy hops hidden in the mist? Set sail into the hazy unknown for a supernaturally fruity burst of tropical and citrus flavours followed by an eerily smooth finish. Hazy IPAs are characterised by juicy flavours, a big viscous mouthfeel and very smooth bitterness along with turbidity or cloudiness, giving the resulting beverage the appearance and flavour of a refreshing glass of alcoholic fruit juice.
Mac's Slim Hazy is a Hazy IPA brewed to be low in carbs but still full in flavour. Slim Hazy uses Citra and Simcoe hops in the brewhouse and again for dry-hopping, this gives the beer both the right level of bitterness as well as up-front flavour and aroma. Mac's Slim Hazy has notes of passionfruit, pine and stone fruit. Overall, an easy drinking, very session-able IPA.
Speight's is the beer of choice after a hard day's work. Probably the least sweet of all New Zealand beers, this characteristic allows the full flavour of the malt and hops to shine through. Speight's Gold Medal Ale is a great accompaniment to any meat dish and is superb with Southern game dishes such as venison, duck and rabbit.
Speight's Summit Ultra with Lime is a crisp and refreshing low carb lager, now with a twist of Lime. Brewed for longer it has 75% less carbs than the average carb content of leading NZ beer brands, making it the perfect way to wash down a hard workout with your mates.
Full flavoured & dripping with drama, with Ale & Wheat malts and packed full of local and exotic aroma hops. This lightly hazed Pale Ale is true to style with a tropical, juicy fruit aroma lingering aloft a heavyset malt body. De-lish
The Czech town of Plzen is known for producing a beer famed for its strong hoppy taste. In BRB's Pilsner they use Pacifica & Cascade hops to produce a citrusy, bitter taste that'll bounce round your mouth like a rabbit on a trampoline.
Back in the British Raj settlers were in dire need of rescuing from the Indian sun, so the IPA was born. BRB's interpretation is authentically brewed with loads of Pacifica hops for floral aromas, malty sweetness and a lingering dry finish.
