About the Beers
1. How is craft beer different from my regular macrobeer?
Craft beers use natural ingredients to produce far more exciting flavors and aromas. Meanwhile, almost all macro-breweries make light-flavored beers with barely noticeable flavors and aromas.
2. I'm new to craft beer. Which Engkanto brew should I try first?
Welcome to the world of craft beer! At Engkanto, we have a beer for everyone. To get started, we suggest trying our main beers and gradually working your way up in alcohol level (ABV) before diving into our seasonals.
It's important to note that not everyone will like every beer, so it's a journey to find which ones are right for you. For those new to craft beer, our Live It Up Lager is the perfect gateway brew. It offers a refreshing take on familiar beer tastes before introducing you to more adventurous beer types. Check out our bundles to find the best deal for you and start your journey to discovering your new favorite beer.
Want a recommendation tailored to your preferences? Take our quiz here and let us help you find the perfect brew to suit your taste buds. Cheers!
3. How should I properly pour beer in a glass?
Hold the glass at a 45-degree angle while aiming the bottle at the side of the glass near the middle. Once your glass is halfway full of beer, turn bottle straight up and finish pouring.
4. What’s the best way to enjoy an Engkanto craft beer?
At Engkanto, we believe that every sip of our craft beer is an experience to be savored. To make the most out of your brew, here are four tips to help you appreciate the rich and complex flavors of our beers (and maybe even rediscover your old favorites!):
- Chill it, but don't overdo it: For the best taste experience, store your beer between 7 to 18 degrees Celsius. Avoid adding ice or subjecting it to sub-zero temperatures, as it can diminish the natural flavors that our brewers have worked hard to achieve.
- Pour it in a glass: A good pour releases the carbonation that carries the inviting aromas, making it easier for you to take in all the complex flavors.
- Store it properly: Keep your beer in a cool, dark place to prevent quickening its aging process. This will help preserve the quality of your brew and keep it tasting its best.
- Remember the 5S's: See, Swirl, Smell, Sip, and Savor. Take a moment to appreciate the beer's color, give it a gentle swirl to aerate it and release the aromas, smell the inviting bouquet, take a sip to get your first impressions, and savor the full taste of the body to enjoy the entire experience.
So, whether you're trying an Engkanto beer for the first time or rediscovering an old favorite, following these tips will help you get the most out of your brew and enjoy the full range of flavors that our craft beers have to offer. Cheers!
5. What’s the alcohol content of your beers?
Want to know the kick you're getting from our beers? Check out their product pages for their %ABV. The higher it is, the stronger the brew. But don't worry, even our strongest beers are sessionable and easy to drink. We're all about creating beers that you can enjoy with your friends and loved ones, without sacrificing quality and flavor. Ready to experience it for yourself? Head over to our beers and take your taste buds on an adventure!
6. What is the calorie count of your beers?
The values below are calculated based on a 330ml serving.
- Live It Up Lager - 135 calories
- High Hive Honey Ale - 145 calories
- Mango Nation Hazy IPA - 160 calories
- Green Lava Double IPA - 225 calories
7. How can I tell how bitter your beers are?
To gauge the bitterness of our beers, simply check the IBU score on their product pages. The higher the score, the more bitter the beer. But don't worry, we're all about creating brews that are both bold in flavor and easy to drink. Even our beers with higher IBUs are still sessionable. So why not try them out for yourself? Head over to our beers page to explore our range of craft brews.
8. Where can I find Engkanto craft beers?
Our beers are available at various grocery stores, membership shopping clubs, hotels, restaurants, and more. Don't know where to start looking? No problem! Check out our Beer Finder map to locate the nearest spots to buy Engkanto, drink it, or even source it for your business. Trust us, your taste buds will thank you!
9. Do you offer a 4-pack with different flavors?
We're sorry, but we do not offer an assorted pack with one bottle of each variant. It can be difficult to judge a beer based on just one bottle, so we have our Discovery Kit which includes one 4-pack of each of our main beer variants at a discounted price. This means you'll receive a total of 16 bottles of beer to try. Additionally, the Discovery Kit comes with a free Pilsner glass for a more enjoyable craft experience! You can find it on our shop page.
10. What’s the shelf life of your beers?
Our craft beers have a shelf life of up to 12 months if stored properly in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. However, we recommend consuming them within 3 to 6 months for the best flavor experience. Rest assured that every order you make on our website is freshly brewed and delivered straight to your door.
11. Are you the same as the old skull engkanto?
Yes, we are still the same Engkanto craft beer that you know and love, but we have recently undergone a rebranding to reflect our renewed focus on the excitement and thrill of life. While our logo and packaging may look different, our commitment to brewing fresh, flavorful, and all-natural craft beers remains unchanged. We're excited for you to try our new look and taste the great beers inside!
