23/11 0.33 l bottle @ L’Espumossa, Barcelona. My bottle was from batch L27, declared as 4.6% ABV only. It poured hazy brown body with medium sized, almost white head. Aroma was nicely toasted and hopped, orange and herbal, while flavor also had sweet caramel and yeast. Medium body with long sweetish caramel finish. Another pleasant Tostada/Torrada.

0.33l bottle @ local restaurant Barcelona. A near clear mild cola-brown one with a quickly fading off-white head. Some american hops in the aroma, it’s quite fruity with tones of citrus and peach. Quite nice. Average to lively carbonated in a mild oily mouthfeel. Malt sweet flavors with a nice balanced bitterness, some chocolate and cocoa powder. Lasting finish with chocolate tones. Quite a nice one. 05.08.2012

UPDATED: JUL 29, 2012 Botella de 330ml. Vaso Tumbler de ½ pt. Revisada en casa en jul´12 – después de haber saboreada del grifo tanto en la Feria de Mediona´12 como en la de Poblenou´12. Color ámbar con tintes marrones y apariencia turbia. La persistente corona es tupida de espuma marfileña. En nariz maltas moderadamente tostadas, trazos herbales, toque cítrico, granos de cereal y matices de chocolate. Gentil y refrescante malteado tostado moderado al primer sorbo seguido por una lupulización de notas herbales –como té-. El paladar es chispeante y deja una suave sensación. Cuerpo medio-ligero y carbonatación moderada. Textura oleosa pero ligera redondeada por un sutil chocolate en el intermedio que aporta un breve final amargo. Cerveza muy bien equilibrada y de fácil asimilación. Refrescante de principio a fin. 330ml bottle. ½ pt Tumbler glass. Review at home on jul´12 -after being enjoyed on-tap both at Mediona Fair 2012 & Poblenou Fair 2012. Brownish amber color. Foggy appearance. Off-white, close & lasting head. Moderate toasted malts, herbal hues, citric touch, raw barley grains & hints of chocolate to the nose.Gentle & refreshing mildy toasted maltiness at first sip followed by herbal –tea-like – hoppiness. Palate is funny while leaving such an smooth sensation. Medium to light body. Moderate carbonation. Oily to watery texture rounded by subtle chocolate in the middle to provide brief bitter finish. Very well balanced beer with an easy drinkability. Refreshing from the early beginning to the end.

Bottled 330ml (Rosses i Torrades, BB 08/2013)
Clear amber color, small off-white head. Yeasty, a bit malty aroma. Medium-bodied, active carbonation. Light caramel, toasted notes, light tartness, As in the first Birra 08 I had, yeast flavor is dominating.
