The Grulla is made in the American Wheat style. With a cloudy and golden appearance, with a high proportion of wheat malt, it stands out on the nose for its notes of coconut, citrus, and a herbal memory, rounded by malt notes, reminiscent of cereal, bread and biscuits. The palate is balanced, with a light bitterness that gives way to the base of malts, with the presence of cereal added to notes of coconut and lemon provided by the hops. Medium-bodied, creamy, fresh and tropical sensation, in a low alcohol beer, designed for a long drink.

Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 1D). Bottle 33 cl - Batch L1575/N. AROMA: moderate-low citrusy hop aroma. medium-low phenolic note (plastic/HDPE). very faint grainy wheat character. APPEARANCE: gold color and clear. medium white head with medium-low retention. TASTE: low hop flavor with citric notes. very faint to non-existant wheat presence. unbalanced medium-high bitterness with a bitter and dry finish. PALATE: medium-light body medium carbonation. OVERALL: a very bitter wheat ale with too little wheat presence.

Cloudy to unclear orange small white head.sweet breading and hoppy aroma. Oatmeal cereal very faint citrus. Surprising aroma for a wheat. Flavor is slightly malty slightly fruity. A lot of light caramel just below the overall flavor. The caramel is almost toffee.
