Commercial Description:
A light-coloured lager conditioned over 30 days. It has a good head, balanced sweet/bitter palate and a clean aftertaste. Brewed for the connoisseur, Mac's Gold is brewed using only choice Motueka hops and quality barley. The bottom fermentation process of brewing by using a gravity system produces a naturally-brewed, all malt lager that contains no added chemicals, preservatives or colouring.

HAd in bottle in Rarotonga. Overall, pretty unspectacular beer. Overflavoured by malts and nothing else for the most part, the beer tastes just plain old bad.

Bottle, 4.0%. Pale golden colour, small white head. The flavour is almost clean. Very bland. Low bitterness.

Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is grains, malts and some rubber. Flavour is saltwater, mild hoppy bitterness and some hints of malts and maize.

330mL Bottle. Pale/Golden beer with an average size white head. Light malt aroma. Light thin beer with malt tastes dominating in this "all-mall beer". Lightly hopped, and short finish. An average beer really, bland and surprisingly thin for all-malt.

Clear golden with tiny white head. Sweet fruity aroma. Flavor is grainy with malty and a mild bitter end.
