Sabana Quinua
Sabana Quinua is a distinctive International Amber Lager that pays homage to ancestral Muisca traditions through the integration of quinua. This ancient grain lends a unique, slightly nutty and earthy depth to the beer's profile, elevating the foundational layers of toasted bread and subtle caramel. The sensory experience is defined by its smooth drinkability and clean lager character, where the malty sweetness is balanced by a restrained bitterness. The result is a harmonious amber brew that feels both grounded in local identity and technically refined, offering a dry, crisp finish with a lingering cereal richness derived from the quinua.
Appearance. Pours a clear, golden-amber to reddish-copper color (10–14 SRM) with a fine-textured, off-white head that shows moderate retention and light lacing.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a grainy malt base with hints of caramel and toasted bread. A unique nutty and earthy cereal aroma from the quinua is present, complemented by very low floral hop notes and a clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial impression of soft, grainy sweetness followed by flavors of toasted bread and light caramel. The quinua provides a subtle, earthy, and nutty mid-palate complexity. Bitterness is low to moderate, ensuring an even balance against the malt. The finish is clean and moderately dry with a lingering toasted grain aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Carbonation is moderate to high, providing a crisp mouthfeel without any harshness or alcohol warmth.
