BB American Lager

Tap to rate

A light malt aroma with a sweetish scent, and a gentle sweetness on the tongue: a fresh, thirst-quenching beer. This organic lager is a classic light American lager, pale golden under a handsome white head, only lightly hopped so that it feels refreshing yet keeps a light malt flavour. Hopped with Mandarina Bavaria.

◐ Taste

Mid-palate maintains that gentle sweetness with a light, crisp quality that refreshes rather than burdens. Bitterness is restrained at 15 IBU, allowing the malt foundation to remain the primary flavor driver throughout.
