Description:

This wonderfully balanced gluten-free Vienna-style lager showcases a rich yet approachable malt profile built on an even split of Vienna and Munich malts, creating notes of toasted bread, light caramel, and smooth malt depth. German Hallertau hops add gentle bitterness and classic noble hop character without overpowering the gluten-free malt. Clean, crisp, and refreshing, this lager finishes smooth and drinkable—an ideal gluten-free summer lager that proves traditional European styles translate beautifully to gluten-free brewing.
