Titan Premium Lager

Titan Premium Lager

"This is a nice middle-of-the-road beer at a very fair price. A cut above some of its more sickly sweet neighbours in the 'premium lager' niche. This beer is an excellent choice for a barbecue on a warm day: a good solid thirst-quencher with no pretensions but no glaring faults either."

Matilda Bay Beez Neez

Matilda Bay Beez Neez

First created as a Christmas surprise for staff at Capilano from their board of directors, this hand crafted wheat beer, with the unique addition of pure light amber honey, proved so popular that Maltida Bay had no choice but to offer it to everyone.

This unique brew has a light malt palate with a distinct honey aroma and flavour plus a hint of bitterness. Clean, crisp and dry on the palate and surprisingly refreshing.

Brew with a blend of premium pale malted barley and malted wheats, then add Pride of Ringwood hops and pure light amber honey into the kettle to produce a beer that tastes like no other. This light golden coloured beer has a malty, honeyed palate but is decidedly dry as the honey sugars have been fermented to alcohol. Beez Neez is the only Matilda Bay beer that is not an all malt beer.

In the versatility stakes, Beez Neez is a very capable and friendly beer for most food types. A great match with everything from fish and chips through to a dessert course. Really! Give it a go in place of a dessert wine.
