Erebuni Lager (50cl, 4.8%)

Erebuni Lager is an Armenian-brewed European pale lager at 4.8% ABV in a 500ml bottle, produced by Kotayk Brewery in the Kotayk Province of Armenia. First introduced in 2000, it takes its name from the ancient fortress of Erebuni, the historical precursor to modern Yerevan. Kotayk Brewery was founded in 1974 in Abovyan and is Armenia's third-largest brewing operation. The lager is brewed with Pilsner malt and noble hops, with an original gravity of 15%, prioritising drinkability and malt-forward character. The nose opens with gentle malt sweetness, light floral hop notes and subtle graininess. The entry is lightly sweet with clean malt presence, a light to medium body and average carbonation. The finish brings mild bitterness, with faint floral and grainy notes trailing off cleanly.
