🌍 Chile · Pale Lager · One of 167 Pale Lagers in hopIQ

Patagonia Blond Lager is a golden, brilliantly clear lager on Pilsner malt, hopped with Apollo, Eureka and Citra. The malt gives a soft sweetness reminiscent of honey, while the hops add floral and spicy notes, citrus fruit and a hint of red berries. The bitterness is gentle and the body light, so the beer stays balanced and easy from first sip to a clean, quick finish. The can shows an ammonite, the spiral-shelled relative of squid that left its fossils in the region.
