About This Beer
San Miguel Lager PerfectDraft Keg embodies the spirit of exploration and quality that the brewery has stood for since its founding in Manila in 1890. Now brewed in Spain, this beer combines European precision with Mediterranean vibrancy, offering a distinctive yet approachable drinking experience.
San Miguel’s signature balance comes from a carefully selected malt blend, soft water, and mild hops, resulting in a lager that is crisp, light, and refreshing with a smooth, satisfying finish. The PerfectDraft Keg format ensures each pour is perfectly chilled and consistently carbonated, maintaining the freshness and aroma you’d expect from draught beer straight from the tap.
