G Mac’s Celtic Style Pale Ale From Golf Beer Brewing Company

Their aim is to create a line of beers for consumption at the 19th hole; a way to bring craft beer into places that traditionally have only been served by the macro brews.

“We wanted to create craft beers for the 19th hole, approachable craft beers, something the golfer can enjoy and maybe associate those with a golfer like Freddie Jacobson, like Keegan Bradley and myself,” McDowell said in Golf Digest.

The beers are brewed at the Brew Hub up in Lakeland, a large facility that is producing beer for Orange Blossom Pilsner, Key Billy Island Ale, and even some spillover from Cigar City Brewing’s demand.

The beer we’re looking at today is the G Mac’s Celtic Style Pale Ale, which was developed by Graeme McDowell.

Though I initially was expecting a bigger hop profile based on the pale ale style, this beer hits the maltier side of the pale ale spectrum, dipping its toes into the amber ale category.
