San Miguel is a pilsner-style lager, golden yellow in colour with reflections of old gold. On the nose it offers hints of smoke against a background of grains. On the palate it is balanced, toasted, of medium bitterness with a prevailing subtle toasting of the barley. The medium persistence aftertaste holds echoes of liquorice.
In 1890 a group of fearless and intrepid Spaniards sailed to Manila in the Philippines on their quest to establish the first brewery in South East Asia. The brewery was located in the St Miguel district of Manila and the first brew created on St Michael’s day. San Miguel became the most fitting name to bestow on the new beer.
The pioneering spirit of the founders meant that the journey continued as San Miguel travelled across Asia and eventually reached Spain in 1954. San Miguel’s quest for seeking out experiences has taken it to many new destinations and it is now sold in over 45 countries worldwide. An international success story with an experience seeking spirit.

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear golden pour, half finger soapy white head. Medium lasting, minimal lacing on the glass. Average on the nose, pretty much as expected. Malt, grains, some stale notes, nothing especial about it really. Thin body, lively carbonation. Light texture, average mouthfeel. Usual industrial lager taste and aroma. Bittersweet combo. Malt, corn, grains. Wet grass, cardboard, metal. Mild lingering bitterness. Meh. Mediocre at best.

there’s nothing wrong with this beer. Clean crisp and quenching for a hot day, and better than North American versions of the style. Konsum dresden

Orange aroma, just a bit flowery, but in fact it stinks! Very fruity, bit malty flavor. Thin, hardly any hopbitterness. A bit soapy finish. Ordinary thirst quencher.
