Named after nearby Mt Macedon, this was one of the first Holgate beers to hit the market. Back in the early days, use of Vienna malts meant it poured a deep honey colour and had a delicate caramel malt flavour finished with a piney, resinous hops from the US Pacific North West.
Over the years, the beer as been refined and reworked into what it is today: a paler beer that still showcases New World hops but does so within a leaner and drier body than before. A fine Australian session pale that sits as the entry point to Holgate's increasingly adventurous range.
