🌍 Italy · Lager · One of 133 Lagers in hopIQ

Ichnusa's unfiltered version — 'Non Filtrata' is the same Sardinian lager recipe left naturally hazy and yeast-alive for a fuller, more complex character. Slightly amber-hued from the retained yeast with a richer malt body, a gentle fruity depth and a refreshing finish at 5.0%. Ichnusa Non Filtrata became one of Italy's best-selling craft-leaning beers, introducing mainstream Italian drinkers to the concept of unfiltered lager.

What is a Lager?

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Ichnusa Non Filtrata

Appearance

A naturally hazy, slightly amber-tinged golden pour with excellent clarity for an unfiltered lager. The retained yeast creates a soft, cloudy suspension that catches light beautifully. Expect a modest but persistent white head that settles into a fine lacing.

hazy goldennaturally cloudywhite headamber-tinged

Aroma

Subtle and inviting, with dominant grainy and bready malt notes characteristic of a classic Sardinian lager base. The yeast presence adds a whisper of gentle fruity complexity without overwhelming the clean, mineral-forward nose. Noble hop undertones provide just enough herbal interest to balance the malt-centric profile.

Taste

Clean entry with pronounced sweet malt and grain backbone that defines the palate. Mid-palate remains smooth and refreshing with light bodied character, allowing the subtle fruity depth to shine through without any sharp edges. Minimal bitterness (14 IBU) ensures an approachable, easy-drinking experience that stays crisp throughout.

Refreshingly dry with excellent drinkability, the finish is clean and mineral-forward with no lingering heaviness. A brief, satisfying aftertaste of grain and subtle malt sweetness encourages another sip.
