Patagonia por Austral
Patagonia por Austral is a lager brand launched in November 2020 by Cervecería Austral, the Punta Arenas brewery founded in 1896 by German brewmaster José Fischer and today part of CCU. The line set out to bring craft-style flavour to a wide audience at an accessible price, starting with a Red Lager and a Hoppy Lager in cans sold across Chile. Each can carries an extinct creature of the region, from the mylodon and the smilodon to the megaloceros, the ammonite and the megalodon.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
Patagonia Hoppy Lager
Their beers place in the Top 34% of the catalogue on average, across 5 ranked beers. Consistent rather than spiky — no single standout carrying the rest.
