Mac's Hop Rocker Pilsener - New Zealand


I bought a six pack of this beer from on a recommendation from the shop assistant at one of my favorite beer shops. Relatively in-expensive, interesting bottle with a neck that looks like rope around a bollard (Mac's is a nautical brewery) and a throw back to the eighties ring pull cap! It tastes just as good from the bottle as it does poured into a glass.

Lovely golden colour with a nice frothy head.
The Nelson Sauvin & Cascade hops give this a pleasant citrus hop aroma. Malt taste is also evident with no real hoppy bitter finish.
This is unusual yet refreshing "Pilsener". Relatively inexpensive for an imported tasty beer so I will buy it again. It will be a perfect spring beer.


SCORE 4.0
