🌍 Sweden · Lager · One of 140 Lagers in hopIQ

Oppigårds' organic Swedish lager, brewed with Barke pilsner and Vienna malt — an ancient Swedish grain variety with heritage the modern hybrids gave up. Organic Cascade and Magnum hops add just enough character to sit above adjunct territory. Cold, crisp, dry, and thoroughly Swedish in the ingredient story.

Aroma

The nose opens with soft, clean malt character — bread crust and light toast from the Barke and Vienna malts — without asserting dominance. Cascade and Magnum hops contribute subtle herbal and citrus notes that add dimension without overwhelming the composition. The overall impression is restrained and balanced, allowing the heritage grain story to speak quietly.

Taste

The palate is crisp and dry, with a bready, slightly toasty entry that reflects the thoughtful malt selection. Mid-palate shows gentle bitterness and a whisper of herbal spice from the hops, while the overall body remains light and refreshing. The dryness persists throughout, creating a mineral, thirst-quenching quality that invites another sip.
