FryBaar
A pronounced hop aroma gives this table beer a finely bitter edge, the light malt adds a trace of fresh bread crust, and the body is fuller than 2.6% ABV suggests. Brewed unfiltered at 7.6° Plato, straw-yellow, for the 500th anniversary of Baar's independence from Kappel Abbey in 1526, with a special malt and a somewhat stronger hop note chosen by head brewer Urs Rüegg's team.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for FryBaar
Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.
The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.
Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
