The kiwis make some great beers, but not many of them are easily found on our shores. Monteiths is one you can usually find and some of their offerings are really enjoyable. I love my pale ales, but sadly the Montheith Pointer Pale Ale isn’t one I’d rave about. It’s a lovely beer but misses the mark on flavour, bordering on what I can only describe as a ‘generic’ pale ale. It needs more body, perhaps a little more fruit or floral hints. Nice to drink around the BBQ or at a party, but not if you want something with a bit of a kick flavour wise.
