About San Mig Light (Small)
San Mig Light is the lighter-bodied lager from San Miguel, the famous Filipino brewer, and it fills a specific and useful niche on a drinks list built around rich, spiced food. At around five percent but with a noticeably lighter body and fewer calories than a standard lager, it is the beer for diners who want to drink steadily through a long meal without feeling weighed down. We serve it well chilled in a small bottle from the bar.
Its appeal alongside Indian food is its crispness. A lighter lager is exceptionally clean and dry on the palate, so it refreshes between bites of a heavy, oily or chilli-laden dish without adding any heaviness of its own. For guests who love the way beer cuts through tandoori smoke and curry richness but do not want a filling, full-bodied bottle, San Mig Light is the obvious answer — all of the palate-cleansing benefit, less of the weight.
It pairs especially well with our lighter starters and grilled items — tandoori chicken, fish tikka, paneer tikka — where its delicate body lets the smoke and spice of the food come through. It is also a sensible choice across a long, multi-course dinner. As with everything from our bar, it is served separately from the kitchen, which is pork-free and halal-friendly, with no alcohol used in any of the cooking. For guests aged twenty and over under Thai law; please drink responsibly.
