A World-Class Taste Profile

Švyturys Ekstra is a classic Dortmunder-style lager that stands out for its exceptional balance. Pouring a brilliant deep golden hue, it is crowned with a thick, long-lasting white head. The aroma is a harmonious blend of aromatic hops and distinct malt notes. On the palate, you will experience a crisp, refreshing intensity that perfectly balances a mild bitterness with a subtle, underlying sweetness.
