🌍 Argentina · Golden Ale · One of 37 Golden Ales in hopIQ

Presented by the brewery as Argentina's first certified organic beer, a golden ale built on organic Pilsen malt from the group's own malthouse in Tres Arroyos. It is hopped with Upsala, a variety grown on the company's farm in Fernández Oro. Pale gold in the glass, it smells of citrus and fruit over cereal and bread. A medium but present bitterness balances the soft malt, the hop recalls grapefruit peel, and the finish is slightly tart.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus notes layered over a soft, grain-forward base. Cereal and bread character emerges from the organic Pilsen malt, grounding the more volatile top notes. The Upsala hops contribute a subtle fruit-forward aromatics without dominating, creating a balanced and approachable profile.

◐ Taste

A medium but present bitterness enters cleanly on the palate, anchored by soft, slightly sweet malt backbone from the organic Pilsen base. The hop character develops mid-palate with a distinctive grapefruit peel quality—tart and pithy without harshness. The malt and hops maintain equilibrium throughout, neither overshadowing the other.

◑ Finish

The finish is slightly tart, with the hop bitterness fading gradually into a dry, cereal-tinged aftertaste. The acidity from both hops and malt lingers pleasantly without astringency, inviting another sip.
