Hometown is Fierce's workhorse lager — approachable, clean, the kind of beer that doesn't demand your full attention. The 0.5% version keeps that brief. This is a straightforward, low-fuss lager designed to be easy company rather than a destination drink. It pours clear pale straw with a short-lived white head. The aroma is mild and grainy with a faint grassy hop note. On the palate there's a light malt sweetness and gentle carbonation — nothing sharp, nothing jarring. The bitterness is minimal and the finish is brief and clean. At 17 calories per 100ml it's a lean option, and the fact it's gluten-free and vegan broadens its appeal. A solid, unpretentious choice when you want something in a can without the beer-shaped hole that some AF lagers leave.
