Soft cream caramel and malt on the nose, and a fine balance of silky caramel sweetness and bitter notes on the tongue. This organic red lager glows reddish under a dense white head. It is the brewery's take on a red lager, given extra style and class by carefully chosen ingredients, hopped with Mandarina Bavaria.

◐ Taste

The palate reveals a fine equilibrium between silky caramel sweetness and controlled bitter notes, neither dominating the other. A creamy mouthfeel carries the malt character forward, with mild citrusy undertones that emerge mid-palate. The 20 IBU bitterness plays a supporting role, offering balance rather than assertion, while maintaining a clean, refreshing character throughout.
