Just six months after its launch, the brewery won several awards at Beer &amp; Food Attraction in Rimini \u2013 an early sign of its promise.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Following those successes, Alessandro stepped in as master brewer, expanding the brewery&#8217;s reach both locally and internationally.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When Fermentis first produced SafLager\u2122 SH-45, the timing was perfect. The Amelia team\u2019s enthusiasm aligned seamlessly with the goal: to develop a refreshing, hop-forward lager in time for the 2025 Beer &amp; Food Attraction \u2013 returning to the very event where the brewery made its debut years earlier.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1320433671\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-1024x683.avif\" class=\"attachment-large size-large not-transparent\" alt=\"Birrificio Amerino brewing with SafLager\u02dc SH-45 a hoppy lager\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-1024x683.avif 1024w, https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-800x533.avif 800w, https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-768x512.avif 768w, https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-1536x1024.avif 1536w, https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-2048x1365.avif 2048w, https:\/\/fermentis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Birrificio-Amerino-SafLager\u02dc-SH-45-hoppy-lager-1-600x400.avif 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" data-dominant-color=\"67544f\" style=\"--dominant-color: #67544f;\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1320433671 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Style: Hoppy Lager<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Hoppy Lagers are an emerging style that combines the crispness of a traditional lager with the expressive hop character typically found in ales. They offer a light to medium body, a pale to golden hue, and hop-driven aromas that range from citrus and floral to pine and tropical fruit.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The style is all about balance: the clean, refreshing profile of a lager meets the bold, aromatic presence of hops. The result is a beer that is easy to drink yet full of flavor \u2013\u00a0 perfect for warm days or hop-lovers looking for something lighter than an IPA.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">These beers also pair well with a wide range of foods, from grilled meats and spicy dishes to seafood and salads.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Yeast: SafLager\u2122 SH-45, our Game-Changing Solution to Elevate Hop Aromas in Lager Beers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This project marked the first commercial use of <\/span><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">SafLager\u2122 SH-45<\/span><\/b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, and it did not disappoint.
