Star Finest Lager is the lager beer of the Star brand from Nigerian Breweries in Nigeria, where it is considered the country's number one beer. The brewery, founded in 1946, with its main brewery in Iganmu near Lagos completed in 1949, brews the beer with 5.1% ABV from water, sorghum, barley malt, sorghum malt, and hop extract. The cold-filtered lager presents itself as bright golden with lively effervescence and a rich foam crown, and in taste it is crisp, fresh, and clean with restrained hopping and a clear finish. The brewery promotes it as "Cold Filtered" for an especially refreshing taste and gives the beer the character of a sociable companion that takes center stage on any occasion. Star, along with Gulder and Goldberg, was awarded a gold medal for international quality at the Monde Selection. The beer pairs well with hearty dishes, grilled food, and social gatherings and is served well chilled. Contains gluten-containing cereals.
