3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
20/11 On tap at the brewpub, as Torrada, which in Catalan means toasted (tostada in Spanish). It poured hazy golden body with smaller head. Yeasty and a bit sourish herbal and citrus hop aroma (Cascade I guess). Flavor was lightly bitter, citrus hops with some toasted malts, but less pronounced than expected. Typical sourish brewpub note. Medium in body with long bitter hop finish showing some acidity as well. Nice and effective APA or lighter IPA.

Tap@Brewpub. Dark yellow, off-white head, good lace. Sweetish, bitter, nice hops. Nothing extreme, nothing special. Drinkable.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
De barril a la Cervesera Artesana. Color ataronjat fosc amb tons rojos i amarronats, finalitzant amb una corona blanca cremosa. Aroma llúpolat i agradable igual que el sabor, força intens i sec, fins i tot amb toc picant. No hi ha notes de pi ni dolces, però tot i això té una gran personalitat. Sorprenent, molt satisfet amb aquesta cervesa. La formula va cambiant a temporades, es possible que la gent tingui diferents percepcions degut a això.
