A heightened chance of purple moustaches, curious looks and a serious dose of FOMO.<\/p>\n<p>At the centre of it all is FOMO: an iced matcha made with coconut drink, topped with a striking layer of purple ube cold foam. The summer special has already become a striking sight on terraces and social media. For Bagels &amp; Beans, that&#8217;s reason enough to take it further in July with Code Purple.

For the first time in decades, Amsterdam has a lager that doesn&#8217;t come from a factory, but from an independent brewery with roots in the city. A refreshing and highly drinkable lager made with pure ingredients and a clean taste you simply can&#8217;t get enough of. Head brewer Wietse Postma and his team spent nearly two years developing the recipe. The result is a precisely brewed lager of 4.9% alcohol with a crisp flavour and a characterful drinkability.<\/p>\n<p>From 1 to 5 July, the launch was officially celebrated at <a href=\"https:\/\/homelanding.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Homelanding<\/a>, the annual festival of Brouwerij Homeland and Cantina Mobil\u00e9 at the Marineterrein. Homeland Puur Pils is available on tap at various caf\u00e9s, restaurants and hospitality venues in and around Amsterdam since June.
