Sairon

Tap to rate

Sairon is a golden, bottom-fermented lager in the helles tradition. Malt leads the aroma, joined by bread crust and a touch of honey. The base is clean and soft, the finish noticeably dry for the style, and the bitterness stays light, so the beer moves along easily without turning sweet. The seal on the label, at home in water and on land, stands for that adaptability.
