That pop star? Filipino. That actor? Also Filipino. This beer? You already know. There’s a proud tradition of claiming anyone with a drop of Pinoy blood, and we’re carrying it on for Filipino Independence Day. Calamansi, a small fragrant Philippine citrus prized for its tangy-sweet punch, anchors this easy-drinking blonde.

Pouring hazy orange beneath a white head, the nose offers mango, lime, and tropical fruit. The first sip leads with mango sweetness before calamansi steps in with its distinctive flavor, balancing things out with gentle acidity. Silky and medium-bodied, it finishes sweet with a subtle pithiness that begs another sip.

Mabuhay!
