Color marrón con corona inexistente. Aroma a dulces y levaduras. De sabor entra dulce y caramelosa acabando con una acidez que me resulta extraña.

b)Silos: La Silos está elaboradacon miel del monasterio de Silos y es de alta fermentación con cuatro tipos de malta diferentes y especias castellanas que le dan un sabor y color único. Su sabor es suave y equilibrado a pesar de tener 7,7º. Son ambas cervezas sin carbónico añadido por lo que se necesita escanciarla para que el carbónico rompa y surga la espuma. Son muy elegantes y sabrosas, es más, si te descuidas te bebes una botella solo.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 fiulijn (12179) - Malmö, DENMARK - JUN 4, 2012
Bottle from El Corte Inglés, Sevilla, 7% ABV Hazy dark amber color, the head has short retention time. The aroma is quite anonymous, there is some malt, caramel and yeast. The malt and caramel flavor are reasonably good, but the fermentation pushed to reach a rather high level has produced also some flavors of vegetables; good bitterness level. Average beer, malty but not spectacular, and a bit too alcoholic.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 CamdenD (979) - Madrid, SPAIN - MAY 20, 2012
A very drinkable and belgian-influenced ale. Closer to a belgian ale than an amber though not as sticky as a barleywine. This is a well-made beer and one that you should seek out. Understated yet still 8%.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 molly75 (270) - (Madrid - España), ITALY - OCT 5, 2011
UPDATED: OCT 11, 2011 SCHIUMA:
compatta, color panna leggermente giallastra, media presenza, breve persistenza
COLORE:
ambra scuro, con riflessi marrone-aranciati, velata con residui in sospensione
INTENSITA’ / FINEZZA / AROMA
profumi tendenzialmente maltati, con un tocco tostato, caramello e un leggero fruttato. Ricorda una dunkel weizen.
GUSTO / RETROGUSTO / PERSISTENZA
inzia con un dolce maltato, caratterizzato da toni caramellati e miele, tenuti a bada da una buona tostatura che in un secondo momento lascia il passo ad una certa astringenza fruttata e una speziatura non ben definibile. luppoli di contorno e sul finire note alcoliche fanno capolino.
CORPO / CARBONATAZIONE / CONSISTENZA
corpo medio, piacevole in bocca, carbonatazione media che tende a svanire in fretta lasciando il prodotto un po’ piatto sul finale.
CONCLUSIONI
sorella maggiore della benedicitina, con più sostanza sia nei profumi che nei sapori. Malti molto piacevoli, forse un dolce zuccheroso un po’ troppo dominante però non stucchevole.
Bevuta nella degustazione sinceramente sembrava più interessante, forse la bottiglia bevuta a casa ha sofferto qualche strapazzo di troppo. Ha dato il suo meglio abbinandola a formaggi francesi a pasta molle, non troppo saporiti, che ne esaltano le sfumature maltate e il dolce mieloso. Comunque un gradino sopra la benidictina; se l’evoluzione segue questo trand, aspetto con ansia una versione "black".
