Dobry lager z wytrawną końsówką i aromatycznymi chmielami. Na uwagę zasługuje elegancka butelka z bardzo ciemnego brązowego szkła. Ręcznie lakierowana i zdobiona. Ta elegancja dodaje sporo estetycznego i cołościowego wyglądu

The way you can tell whether something from NZ is any good is to work out whether Australians have tried to claim it. Phar Lap, Crowded House, even Russell Crowe. We’ve nabbed them all. But I’ve never heard of anyone trying to claim Monteith’s Single Source Lager Beer. So I should have known. This is a perfectly inoffensive lager offering that would do nicely at a very chilly temperature on a very hot day. There’s some malt and a bit of citrus on the nose, and more of the same in the mouth. It’s a truly sudsy beer, so much so that I feared I’d start blowing bubbles if I opened my mouth.

Bottle. Pale gold with an inch of white head that sticks around. Very modest aroma of grain, lemon, a little earth and spice. Thin mouthfeel. Taste is rather empty - there’s some grain but not much sweetness or, well, anything - just no presence to the malt at all. Hop aromatics taste thin and weedy on that base. Slight soapy bitterness in a brief finish. Sheesh, they bang on about how they know all the names and addresses of the individual grains of barley and then serve up this? Insipid.
