Küné

Tap to rate

A pale ale whose name means twins in the Mapuche language, a nod to the two local hops it is built on: Mapuche and Victoria. Several specialty malts, caramel malt among them, and a warm top fermentation give a bright bronze-gold colour and a medium body. The aroma is intense, with citrus and herbal hop notes over caramel and a light toastiness. Bitterness stays gentle, and the beer finishes balanced and easy.

◌ Aroma

The nose is assertive and layered, led by citrus and herbal hop character from the two Mapuche varietals. Beneath this sits a supporting caramel sweetness and a subtle toasted grain note that adds depth without heaviness. The overall impression is fresh and inviting, with no harsh edges.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and medium-bodied, with the hop bitterness arriving as a gentle frame rather than an aggressive force at 35 IBU. The palate develops caramel maltiness and toasted grain flavors that balance the citrus and herbal notes from the aroma. Bitterness persists in the mid-palate without dominating, creating a harmonious interplay.

Serve at 7–10°C

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
