The Ingrid Bergman is a refined beer cocktail blending cold lager, sweet vermouth, and Angostura bitters with a citrus garnish. Its appeal lies in the balance of crisp beer with vermouth's herbal sweetness and aromatic complexity.

Pour ingredients, in order given, into pilsner glass.
Use a clean, crisp pilsner or pale lager. Avoid heavily hopped IPAs or dark lagers, which overpower the vermouth and bitters balance.
Pour vermouth and bitters first, then gently top with cold lager to preserve carbonation and prevent excessive foam.
Dry vermouth shifts the profile significantly and is not recommended; it removes the sweetness that defines the drink. Stick with sweet vermouth.
Twist the orange peel over the drink to release oils, then drop it in or rest it on the rim. Do not squeeze juice into the cocktail.
A chilled beer glass, pilsner glass, or highball glass works best to accommodate the full 12 oz volume.
