Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Lagos

◎ Appearance

Lagos presents a pale golden hue with exceptional clarity, the result of its unpasteurised nature preserved through careful handling. The head forms with moderate density and displays stable retention, while fine carbonation creates a gentle effervescence that maintains visual liveliness throughout the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose is restrained and elegant, leading with bright citrus notes that suggest fresh lemon zest and gentle orange peel. A soft, refined Edelhopfen character underpins the aroma without dominating, while the all-malt grist provides a clean, understated backdrop of pale grain and subtle herbaceousness.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and dry, with the citrus character translating seamlessly from aroma to palate. The mid-palate shows balanced malt sweetness—light and biscuity—that grounds the beer without heaviness, while low-to-moderate bitterness (22 IBU) provides structure without assertiveness. The overall impression remains clean and refreshing throughout.

About Lager

Style guide · what to expect · how to find alternatives

What is a Lager?

Euro Pale Lagers are clean, refreshing lagers with 4–5.5% ABV and IBU 10–25. Soft malt sweetness, light hop bitterness and high carbonation make them supremely drinkable.

Finding a similar Lager

hopIQ matches by flavor profile — not just style label. A beer with the same citrusy, clean, crisp character as Lagos will score highly even if brewed in a different country or under a different sub-style name.
