Lion Extra Strong 12% (6-pack)
The Roaring Power of Sri Lanka
Lion Extra Strong Beer, a bold creation from the historic Ceylon / Lion Brewery in Sri Lanka, offers a robust escape into the world of high-ABV lagers.
Boasting a formidable 12% alcohol content, this beer is not for the faint-hearted. Each can or bottle is a testament to the brewery's courage in crafting a beer that pushes the limits of strength while maintaining a smooth and drinkable character.
It has a rich golden color and a bold aroma that hints at its strength. The flavor is a surprising mix of fruity sweetness, balanced graininess, and a subtle bitterness. Despite its high alcohol content, it is deceptively smooth, making it a daring choice for those seeking a more potent beer experience.
Brewed in Biyagama, just outside the capital city of Colombo, Lion Extra Strong Beer is part of a brewing legacy that dates back to 1849. The brewery, the first in Sri Lanka, was established by British explorer Samuel Baker. Today, Lion Brewery continues to dominate the Sri Lankan beer market, with a remarkable 82% share, showcasing its commitment to quality and innovation.
Lion Extra Strong was awarded a Gold medal in 2012 from the Monde Selection, known as the Michelin Guide of beer, highlighting its quality and excellence in the strong lager category.
Its strength can stand up to hearty meals, making it a good match for grilled meats and bold curries.
