🌍 Italy · Pale Lager · One of 62 Pale Lagers in hopIQ

A gluten-free version of the premium lager, brewed from the same ingredients, barley malt and maize included; an enzyme added at the end of brewing breaks down the gluten. It pours pale straw yellow and clear under a white head. The profile follows the original, with a grassy, lightly citrusy hop aroma, a soft and slightly sweet grain body with a hint of fresh bread, moderate bitterness and a quick, clean finish.
