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. It’s remained ahead of the curve, at the bleeding edge (or whatever other piece of metaphorical excess is fashionable this week) 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.

330ml bottle from Waitrose. Straw with minimal white head; musty malt aroma; sweet malty flavour with very light carbonation; lacking any hops. Not exactly unpleasant, but nothing going for it.
