Crown Ambassador 2012 Reserve Lager

It comes in a champagne-style bottle, best served at a temperature of around 7-11°C and is best enjoyed in a red wine glass, which will encourage to open up and release its aromas. 

Juicy and mouth-filling, slightly caramelized malt with generous hop bitterness and flavor. Perfectly suited to after dinner sipping, or as an accompaniment to dishes such as game and venison. It is also well suited to rich desserts, dried fruits and strong flavored vintage cheeses.

Sound like one of those descriptions for a luxury wine?
It's not - it's an Aussie premium beer!

This certainly is expensive. As for the questions “is it worth it?” That’s a very subjective question that can only be answered by the individual. I personally amaze the fact that there are beers setting out to challenge wine.

This is a good beer and well worth a place in your cellar. If your budget stretches to it, this is well worth buying, especially if you can be patient enough to let your bottle develop and age.

Like a fine wine, Crown Ambassador Reserve is crafted to mature and improve over time. 6 months following its release, the beer is well on its way and each bottle will be developing new unique characters.

Gently turned the bottle for approximately one minute before opening to savor the full experience. This is essential to maximize the unique flavor and aroma of the beer, as it ensures the yeast that has settled in the secondary fermentation process is distributed evenly throughout.

The beer will continue to mature and evolve and provide excellent drinking for up to 10 years.

Crown Ambassador Reserve was first released in 2008 and pioneered a new luxury style of beer never seen before in Australia. The 2012 is the fifth release and was led by new Head Brewer Tully Hadley for the first time. Tully will continue the tradition and legacy of Australia's most luxurious beer which adds distinctive crystal malt and fresh Galaxy hops to create a lager full of complexity and style.
The prestige lager has been expertly aged in French oak barrels for 3 months from highly regarded French cooperage Dargaud et Jaegle imparting an even deeper and more concentrated flavor to this truly exceptional beer.

Only 7000 individually numbered bottles are available.
