This gluten-removed International Lager delivers a sensory experience indistinguishable from traditional barley-based brews. It presents a refined profile defined by clean barley malt, offering nuances of fresh white bread and toasted grain. The use of traditional Mediterranean lager techniques results in a crisp, refreshing character enhanced by a lively, bright acidity. A firm hop presence provides a balanced, long-lasting bitterness that cuts through the malt. With its smooth texture and fine, effervescent bubbles, the palate remains clean and energized, finishing with a dry, lingering snap that emphasizes its high drinkability and classic European lager roots.
