In Turkey, the majority of beers produced or imported are pale lagers, often colloquially referred to as “water-like.” These beers, with their pale golden hue and crystal-clear appearance, are notably light on flavor complexity. They are primarily designed to quench thirst and are best served ice-cold for immediate refreshment.

Craft beer, however, embodies diversity: it offers an exciting spectrum of flavors, from bold bitterness to vibrant fruitiness, and encompasses a range of alcohol content, colors, carbonation levels, and clarity. Every style of craft beer presents a distinct profile, making it a far more dynamic and engaging choice for the discerning drinker.
