About Tirana Pilsner

Tirana Pilsner is Malto's original, flagship beer, first produced in 1961 at what was then the state-owned Kombinati Ushqimor plant and now sold as Birra Tirana's core product. It is a European-style pale pilsner at 4 per cent alcohol by volume with an original extract of 10.8 degrees Plato, brewed from barley malt, hops and yeast with Selitë spring water making up over 90 per cent of the recipe, following what the company describes as the ingredient rules of Germany's 1516 purity law. It is sold in 500ml and 330ml returnable and non-returnable glass bottles, cans and draught kegs, and distributed in Albania, Kosovo, the United States and elsewhere in Europe.
