Saint, the 4.6% ABV British craft lager from independent brewers The Saint Brewing Co. will launch on draught in London with its first listing confirmed as The Distillers pub in East London. Saint on draught is ideally suited to outlets with a focus on British lagers and restaurants and bars which champion craft and contemporary qualities.
As well as being refreshingly light in body, Saint has a clean, fresh flavour with no lingering aftertaste, described by the experts as “ sharp citrus hop taste, with floral and soft fruit notes” The premium taste epitomises the attention to detail put into making each batch at the brewery based in West Sussex.
The Saint Brewing Co. have designed a bespoke Saint glass to create the perfect pint. The tall narrow glass helps preserves the head and carbonation level which means Saint retains its characteristic smoothness, fruity zest and classic hop bitterness.
Gemma Copping, Marketing Director for Saint said:
“Saint launched in bottle last December and with growing demand for premium British lagers from drinkers, launching Saint on draught is a natural next step which taps into this consumer trend. Saint has had an incredibly exciting first year and we will be building on this as we head into year two.”
Saint is not pasteurised which means it contains less gass than its competitors. It also has a very low carbohydrate content with less than 1g carb per 100mls and is lower in calories than other premium lagers, containing less than 170kcals per pint.
