Ichnusa Unfiltered

A Taste of Sardinia, Naturally Hazy and Full of Character.
Bring a little Sardinian character to your beer glass with Ichnusa Non Filtrata, the unfiltered lager from one of Italy’s best-known island breweries. With its golden, naturally hazy appearance and rounded malt character, this is a beer that offers something a little different from the crystal-clear lagers usually associated with Italian beer. It remains refreshingly easy to drink, but has a fuller feel and a distinctive personality of its own.

Brewed in Assemini, Sardinia, Ichnusa Non Filtrata is made with pure barley malt and left unfiltered. This means some yeast remains suspended in the beer, giving it its characteristic cloudy appearance and contributing to its rounded character. Rather than aiming for a perfectly clear finish, the beer embraces a more natural-looking presentation that hints at what awaits in the glass. Any light sediment is normal for this style and part of its unfiltered nature.

At 5% ABV, it strikes a comfortable balance between flavour and drinkability. The aroma is gently fruity, with a subtle hop note, while the taste is full and rounded, led by malt and balanced by a moderate, refreshing bitterness. The finish is clean, with a slight bitter edge that keeps the beer lively and makes another sip all the more inviting.

The 44cl can is a generous format for enjoying this Sardinian favourite at home, sharing with friends or pairing with a relaxed meal. Serve it well chilled and let the beer’s natural haze and rounded flavour shine. Whether you are exploring Italian lagers beyond the familiar names or simply looking for an unfiltered beer with an approachable profile, Ichnusa Non Filtrata brings a little taste of Sardinia to every occasion.

Why we love it:
Ichnusa Non Filtrata has a lovely balance of character and refreshment. The natural haze gives it an appealing rustic look, while the rounded malt flavour and gentle fruitiness make it more interesting than a straightforward lager without sacrificing drinkability. We also love its strong connection to Sardinia and its straightforward approach: good barley malt, a soft mouthfeel and just enough bitterness to keep things balanced. A great choice for an easy-going aperitivo or a casual meal.
