Brewing what comes naturally

Lined up like a bunch of organ pipes at the bar, you'll find the complete Mac's range of beers.

Mac's has a long history of creating award-winning naturally brewed beers. Last year it won gold, silver and bronze at the BrewNZ Awards for Sassy Red, Hop Rocker and Great White respectively, more feathers in a cap that’s already so feathery they could stuff a mattress with it.

Sassy Red

Here's a quick run down of what's pouring on any given day of the week:

Mac's Gold — the perennial favourite and the beer that made Mac's famous. A refreshingly crisp, lightly hopped 4% golden lager.
Mac's Black — newly reformulated, this chocolaty dark beer is rich in caramel and coffee flavours, toasted malts and Hallertau hops.
Hop Rocker — a superb golden pilsner heavily hopped with sauvin and cascade varieties giving it citrus aromas and a proper bitter finish.
Great White — a complex, cloudy Belgian witbier with banana, bubblegum and Turkish delight flavours, among others.
Sassy Red — a real favourite and Mac’s most awarded beer. A very hoppy English-style bitter ale with loads of Saaz B and five different malts. All the flavour you can handle.
Spring Tide — ever mindful of the needs of all our drinkers, Spring Tide is a lower carb lager at full strength, but without that anaemic taste.
Isaac's Cider — a splendid cider from Mac's, made from locally grown New Zealand apples with the crisp, refreshing taste nature intended.
Mac's Twisted — Mac's Gold with a twist of lime. A very popular thirst-quenching summer lager.
Ginger Beer — Mac's makes great beer, and that includes the Ginger, non-alcoholic variety, with its perfect, refreshing balance of sweetness and spiciness.
Green Apple — another non-alcoholic option, is made from genuine Hawkes Bay Granny Smiths. Nothing gets a pucker on like our sour apple fruit drink.
