Cantina Cerveza is Mr Banks Brewing Co.'s tribute to the Mexican-style lager, brewed in Melbourne for ultimate ease of drinking. Premium malt is paired with flaked maize for a soft, dry body, then lifted with Loral and Motueka hops that lend a fresh lime-like character without needing the wedge.

It pours bright pale gold with a fluffy white head, leading with subtle citrus and grain aromatics. The palate is light, crisp and clean, with restrained bitterness keeping the focus on refreshment and a snappy, dry finish that resets the palate for the next sip.

Built for tacos, the long lunch and any occasion that calls for an easy cerveza, Cantina is uncomplicated, smashable lager done well.
