Macau is one of our earliest and most enjoyed beers. Originally brewed as a white stout (a pale ale with coffee), Macau is brewed using 33.3% rolled oats and melanoidin malt to produce a silky smooth body and light fluffy head.
We added a delicious blend of fruity Guatemalan coffee from our friends at Neighbourhood Coffee Roasters in Liverpool, which gives Macau a subtle roasted flavour. We added coffee at wort making stage and dosed it after fermentation with a freshly brewed batch to add layers of flavour, then added a touch of natural pistachio flavouring to complement the coffee.
Macau is a very slightly sweet pale with low/to no bitterness, a heady blend of coffee and nuts to create a delicious dessert-like beer at a manageable ABV that can be enjoyed anytime.
