Ex Novo Brewing

This International Pale Lager is a refined and crisp interpretation of the classic Mexican Lager style, specifically crafted for ultimate refreshment. The grain bill features a thoughtful combination of Vienna and Pilsner malts, which provide a clean, bready, and slightly crackery foundation. An addition of flaked corn imparts a characteristic lightness and a faint, approachable sweetness on the nose. The profile is remarkably clean, showcasing a neutral fermentation that allows the subtle floral and herbal hop notes to provide a gentle balance. Finisthing bone-dry with a snapping carbonic bite, it is a bright and quintessential example of the style, inviting a slice of lime.

Appearance. Pale straw in color (approximately 3 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Pours with a white, frothy head that displays moderate retention and leaves light lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Low to moderate intensity featuring a clean, grainy-malty core with a hint of corny sweetness. Hop aroma is very low, presenting as subtle herbal and floral notes. The fermentation profile is exceptionally clean and free of esters.

Taste. Initial impression is of light, bready Pilsner and Vienna malt sweetness, followed by a soft, crackery grain character and a touch of corn. Hop flavor is low and herbal. Bitterness is medium-low, providing just enough structure to balance the malt. The finish is crisp, short, and very dry, with a neutral aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with high carbonation that produces a refreshing carbonic bite on the tongue. Smooth and light-textured with no alcohol warmth or astringency.
