Spanish friends,

What’s happening to "Cerveses Alpha"? http://www.ratebeer.com/brewers/cerveses-alpha/13240/


Facebook page is offline, online store is offline, can’t find their beers anywhere, no answers to my emails, etc.

Are they still alive?

Cheers,
André

André: No idea. Actually the had/have little distribution in Spain, mainly in Barcalona area. I heard about them lots of times but never had one of them.

Cheers,
David

I hope they’re still alive, because Andorra is one of the last few European countries I’m missing and have been trying hard to get. No success so far.

Yeap,

Those were the guys that shipped Andorran beers to me, but they don’t have it anymore since 2 or 3 months ago...

Yeah, they said they stopped working with them. So, anyone had luck elsewhere?

None that I know of, sorry, got mine from a RB friend who passed through Andorra.

Last ones I had (last year) were infected so wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve vanished.

I’ve had 2 in late 2012 - one (the stout, Crepuscle), was infected, and tasted nothing like the 8.5% it claimed to have, and the Andorbock Fumat (smoked doppelbock refermented in the bottle) was a mess and, again, tasted nowhere near the 9.1% it claimed to have.

Sooo, yeah, unfortunately not surprising if they went under.

I’ve seen bottles 2 weeks ago in Valencia, but they might be there for some time already of course. The website never worked well though and the FaceBook page is just incorrectly linked it seems. They still post at https://www.facebook.com/CervesaAlpha so my guess is business as usual.
