Inspired by the two stars explorers used to navigate their way to the West Coast of New Zealand in search of gold - ‘the Pointers’ - drinkers too will find a drop of gold in this unique brew.
Using Kiwi hops, Pointers is Monteith’s New Zealand take on the Australian style of beer.
Hops - Green Bullet, Wai-iti, Motueka, Rakau and Kohatu give this brew an upfront burst of tropical fruit aroma, along with mandarin and peach notes. While Head Brewer, Tony Mercer has used Munich, Ale and Wheat malts to balance the flavour and create a crisp, lingering finish.
“We’ve taken on the challenge to craft something unique and distinctively Kiwi for the discerning Australian pale ale drinkers”, Tony Mercer said. “Our thinking is that of all the stars in the night sky, there are some that distinctly stand out, and this too can also be said of beers.
“Of the myriad of beers that sit amongst the shelves there are some that stand out and steer you back time-and-time again. We wanted our Monteith’s Pointers Pale Ale to be that guiding light, that ‘Pointer’, so to speak.”
ABV 4.2%, RRP $17.90 per six pack
Monteith's Pointers Pale Ale is available in Australia through Drinkworks.
