Keeping your winter get-togethers interesting and up-to-date with these three great brews

MONTEITH’S AMERICAN PALE ALE:

Monteith’s brewers have gone a little red, white and blue in creating their latest addition to the Brewer’s Series range, introducing the new American Pale Ale (APA). The iconic West Coast Brewery has created a full flavoured interpretation of an American classic – a refreshing beer with a pronounced, almost precocious, hop character and citrus aroma. It’s brewed with imported American Citra hops, mixed with a good ol’ dose of New Zealand bittering hops to create a mid-strength 5.7% ABV American Pale Ale styled brew.

MONTEITH’S SOUTHERN PALE ALE:

Our brewers in Greymouth wanted to have a crack at making the most of the flavoursome yet soft notes of the Kiwi Southern Cross hops. Southern Pale Ale is brewed with lightly roasted pale malts, and is characterised by a slight hop profile rather than the more aggressive profile of an IPA. The hops in a Pale Ale give the beer a hop forward aroma characterised by a heady mix of lemon peel and pine needles layered beneath the clean spiciness flavour.

MONTEITH’S DOPPELBOCK:

First released in 2003 what makes Doppelbock unique is its six malts which combine to create a voluptuous, rich, warming beer that pours with a red hue. Doppelbock was originally brewed in Bavaria in the 1600s to provide nourishment during the traditional German fasting period. It was affectionately nicknamed “liquid bread”.
