In 2007 a new beer, impressioned by the use of organic orange flower honey, was added to the Barley range, offering a delicate leaning towards elegant citrus flavours and perfumes.
Zàgara presents itself orange in colour with a creamy head, tight and persistant. the nose experiences an explosion of orange and spices, whilst the palate enjoys the malt, orange and a finale of dry hops, which renders this beer both extremely quaffable and thirst quenching.
Excellent as an aperitif, and at the table marries happily with pumpkin ravioli, a fresh fish salad or with white meat with goat's cheese or pecorino.

Bottle, 75cl, at RBNAG -09, courtesy of Beer2000. A hazy, orange beer under a small, off-white head. Orange-like sweetness, clementines and malty hints on the nose. The flavor has malty sweetness in the back, but is dominated by oranges. Medium body, dry. Orange finish with some bitterness. A very refreshing beer needing some complexity. 091107

Bottle, at RBNAG 2009 in Vatlandsvåg, as Barley Zàgara Buchemèli. Brewed with honey from orange flowers. Orange coloured beer, low head. Lovely aroma of oranges / orange flowers. Fairly dry flavour for a beer brewed with honey, just a hint of oranges, moderate hops in the finish.
