Amor Lager

Tap to rate

Clean, soft and light, with floral and cereal aromas, a hint of pastry and a bright blond look. It is bottom-fermented and brewed in the Helles style. The recipe has a story: one evening in a pretty bar in the Pyrenees, an Italian brewer gave the Yakka team the pointers, and the love for this classic style took hold, set against the monotony of industrial lagers.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a clean, light entry and bready malt foundation that unfolds steadily across the mid-palate. Subtle malty sweetness and a whisper of grain character provide body without heaviness, while low bitterness (20 IBU) remains well-integrated rather than assertive. The overall impression is smooth and approachable, with crisp mineral notes that maintain freshness.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium in length, fading gracefully with residual malty notes and a dry, refreshing character. No harsh edges or lingering off-flavors; instead, a gentle cereal sweetness lingers briefly before dissipating.
