CISK Maltese Lager Beer (24 x 330 ml - 4.2%) CANS

Product Information

Another classic Maltese beer that has been garnering top international accolades, this amber coloured, top-fermented ale is mixed in with a special type of mild malt that gives the beer its rich colour and smooth taste. It’s velvety texture and subtle chocolate and caramel notes may have you thinking you are actually eating a bit of chocolate – especially if you are a few cans in. 6. TAR Robust Porter The Robust Porter comes from the team at Phoenix Raw Beer, and this take on the flavour profile for a classic English Porter adds another layer of flavour profile, with crushed coffee beans giving the beer further complexity. Kinnie is a popular Maltese soft drink. Bitter-sweet, its flavour is orange with a herbal hint of wormwood. It represents a refreshing alternative to branded carbonated drinks with a far broader international presence. If you’re happy to explore, then Malta is a good place for low-cost day-trips around the island. Malta has a gorgeous rugged coastline, a few beachy bays and plenty of hikes. As its name suggests, this is a Maltese-produced milk stout. With caramel added from flavour, this dark-coloured beer comes with an aroma of roasted malts, metal, lactic tones, coffee.

Malta is a fantastic foodie destination, with loads of restaurants that take pride in local produce and traditional Maltese dishes. Of course we couldn’t try them all, but here are a few restaurants in Malta and Gozo that we enjoyed personally or heard good things about. Restaurants in Valletta Following the merger, Cisk grew into Malta’s preeminent national beer. The golden yellow label with red lettering is often found anywhere alcohol is served. For those who enjoy partying, we recommend heading to Saint Julian’s. For those who wish to get a feel for the entire island, a road trip around this tiny 316-kilometer island is the best way to see it all.However, despite Cisk’s success, there is growing demand for new flavors and options. It is a demand driven by expats moving to Malta and a thirsty tourism industry.

Best restaurants in Malta and Gozo

Malta is a relatively dry country. The country receives only about 550 mm of precipitation each year, making water nearly as precious as gold. In addition, Malta’s limestone is porous, which is good for producing Maltese wine, but not very helpful in collecting a year-round supply of potable water. The Rubin Double Ale is inspired by the classic Belgian Trappist style of brewing, usually called “Dubbel”. It is a rich full-flavoured beer, with biscuit overtones, and is moderately hoppy with a rich malt aroma. Great as a winter beer or an accompaniment to a Lord Of The Rings marathon. 10. Farsons LactoMalta is a popular, year-round destination. In part, that’s because of its sun-kissed landscapes and beaches, plus its rich and varied history. Arabic, Italian, French and British influences plus Mediterranean ingredients have helped shape a delectable cuisine whose dishes are often under-rated in discussions about European gastronomy. Malta has an excellent and reasonably priced bus service. Bus routes run across the island. Valletta is particularly well-connected to bus routes and makes for a good home base. Accommodation in Malta is expensive. Malta is a small enough island that you could base yourself in one town for the entirety of your stay and take day-trips to everywhere. However, it’s not uncommon for travellers to stay overnight on Gozo Island as well. Air Malta, British Airways, easyJet and Jet2 are among the airlines operating direct flights between airports in the United Kingdom and Malta. Made with carob, Hanini is a digestive that is distilled in Malta. So too is Lumincetta, a lemon-based liqueur.

Overall, we found Malta to be an expensive holiday destination when compared with other European countries. Prices are similar to what we would expect to pay in the UK for accommodation and meals out.The British brought beer to Malta. After capturing the islands from French forces under Napoleon in 1800, the British began to use Malta as a naval base. The stationing of British sailors and marines on the islands would require large amounts of food and supplies — including beer. A Beer Legend Begins What makes Maltese bread or Ħobż tal– Malti so special that it has been added to UNESCO’s list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity? It’s undoubtably moreish, with a spongy, sourdough texture and crunchy crust that in the past was baked in a wood fired oven. Simonds Farsons Cisk uses nearly 100% of its water from Maltese sources and recently built a new water purification plant for €1 million.
