Lager 4.9 º

Sabeco

Saigon Export presents as a quintessential Asian interpretation of the American Lager, traditionally brewed with a blend of barley and rice. The sensory experience is defined by its remarkable clarity and high carbonation, which emphasizes a crisp, clean profile. Subtle grainy sweetness from the rice adjunct provides a neutral backdrop for a faint, floral hop presence. A distinctive, slightly acidic snap brightens the finish, enhancing its thirst-quenching qualities. This light-bodied lager remains focused on refreshment, offering a well-attenuated palate that balances soft malt notes with a delicate, non-lingering bitterness that ensures a clean, short aftertaste.

Appearance. Pale straw to light yellow (2-3 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a white, frothy head that has moderate to low persistence and light lacing.

Aroma. Low intensity. Clean malt character featuring subtle grainy-sweetness and a hint of steamed rice. Hop character is very low to absent, with a faint floral or herbal note. Fermentation profile is extremely clean.

Taste. Initial impression is crisp and neutral. Malt flavors are light and grainy-sweet, showcasing the clean contribution of rice. Hop flavor is minimal, appearing as a slight herbal quality. Low bitterness provides just enough balance against the malt. The finish is very dry and short with a unique, refreshing light acidity.

Mouthfeel. Light to medium-light body. Very high carbonation providing a sharp, refreshing carbonic bite on the tongue. No alcohol warmth or astringency.
