Sagres Sol&Mar

Beer Description

Sagres Branca is the classic pale lager expression of the Sagres beer family, first introduced in Portugal in 1940. The brand became Heineken-connected through Heineken’s control of Sociedade Central de Cervejas in 2008. As the core Sagres identity, Branca is built around pale golden colour, filtered clarity, clean bottom fermentation, light malt sweetness, and restrained bitterness. Within the archive, it represents one of Portugal’s defining mainstream lager brands and a central part of modern Portuguese beer culture.
