Vibin’ Lager

Tap to rate

Delicate noble hops bring a floral touch to this Italian-style pilsner, which pours golden-pale on a cereal-grain base. The brewers made it for those with good vibrations and compare its easy drinking to a righteous riff. It has 5% ABV, is brewed from water, barley malt, non-malted cereals, and hops, and is part of the year-round lineup.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and clean, with delicate Malz sweetness grounding the profile. Mid-palate reveals the noble-hop character as a gentle floral thread rather than aggressive bitterness, supported by fine malt structure. Bitterness is restrained at 10 IBU, finishing dry and refreshing without any astringency.

Serve at 4–7°C

Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.

Pilsner glass

The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.

Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.

About Italian Pilsner

What is a Italian Pilsner?

Pilsners are crisp golden lagers with 4–5.5% ABV and IBU 25–45. Defined by spicy, floral Saaz hops over a light malt backbone — bright carbonation and a dry bitter finish.
