Faxe Se7en

Denmark·Strong Lager
Tap to rate

Rich malt flavours come with subtle fruity and floral notes, crafted from Faxe's distinctive yeast. A smooth yet intense strong lager, it lingers long after the last sip. Water, malted barley, glucose syrup, maize and hops go into the brew. The Canadian pages of the Danish Faxe brewery list it as a sinful strong lager for those who indulge boldly and taste without compromise.
