Only What Matters.

The lager we needed didn't exist. So we brewed Canol.

Chris - Founder
Chris has lived with type 1 diabetes since childhood, but he's a pint-half-full kind of guy.

He chooses to manage his condition with balance. He keeps a close 
eye on his health so he can wholeheartedly enjoy the moments that matter. Chris loves a lager. The thing is, carbs haven’t always loved him back. So he got brewing, and after a while, ended up with Canol.

On one hand, Canol is a lovely, full-strength & full-flavoured lager. 
On the other, it's low-carb, low-cal, and gluten-free. We're all looking 
for a bit of balance, aren't we?
The Process

Brewed with Only What Matters.

The Start

The Start

Three grains to start: lager and Vienna malts for a soft, toasty base, maize for a smooth, light body, wheat for a lasting, creamy foam.

The Fermentation

The Fermentation

Then the bit we're proudest of. A long, careful fermentation with a natural enzyme that helps reach every last bit of sweetness. The carbs come down. The ABV stays put.

The Rest Phase

The Rest Phase

Finally we give Canol 28 days to rest cold. The time a lager needs, but rarely gets. The flavours settle, the finish cleans up, the lager finds its feet. Patiently. There's no other way to make it.

Enjoy

Brew These Moments, 
With Only What Matters.

It’s a bit noisy out there, sometimes. Bit fast, isn’t it? If you’re always in a rush, you can miss what matters.

Settle in. Leave the heaviness at the door. Gather a unique mix of characters, old and new. We’ve got a slow & steady afternoon ahead. Eat well. Stay long until the talk gets really good. In your hand, a lager that contains only what matters.

That’s better.
