Simonds Farsons Cisk plc, brewer of a wide portfolio of award winning local and international beers, announces the launch of Skol Strong, a new 6.5% ABV lager and the latest extension to the Skol brand.

Skol Strong offers a clean yet fuller-bodied profile than the classic Skol. Its elevated alcohol content enhances the aroma, revealing notes of sweet malt, light honey, and subtle fruity hints. Smooth and slightly warming on the palate, it delivers a crisp finish with a balanced blend of malt sweetness and mild bitterness.

“Over the years, it has grown into a strong brand with a loyal and diverse consumer base, valued for its quality and everyday appeal. This higher‑ABV variant builds on Skol’s strong brand equity, while also responding to the renewed interest in higher‑alcohol beers driven by evolving consumer trends and shifting market demographic,” said Mr Karl Bondin, Head of Marketing at Simonds Farsons Cisk plc.

Skol and Skol Strong are brewed, marketed and distributed by Simonds Farsons Cisk plc. Skol is available in 50cl cans and bottles while Skol Strong is solely available in 50cl cans.
