Sagres is the leading and most preferred Portuguese beer. Launched in 1940, it has been since then produced with 100% natural products and according to traditional brewing methods using water, malt, non-malted cereals and a careful selection of hops. No additives or preservatives are used. Sagres beer can be described as a mildly bodied pilsner, with a dry clean palate and a mildly bitter character, complemented by subtle estery notes.
