ABV: 8.0% IBU: 27 Ticks: 61
A strong lager that offers a perfect balance between the malts, the hops and the high alcohol content. Our Brewmasters recover one of the old Hijos de Rivera historic recipes, the “Especial Extra” (aka La Colorada). Brewed in the only Company’s brewery placed in A Coruña using our traditional methods: best ingredients, long maturing time, passion for the excellence. An intense amber beer. In aroma the balance shifts slightly in favor of the malts, with pleasant sweet notes, caramel-like. The bitterness balances the intense alcohol content and the light piquant aftertaste.

Bottle in Spain. Pours a near clear amber with an off white head that dissipates quickly to the edges. Arora has sweet bread and sweet grains with a bit of straw underlying. Flavor starts with sweet grains, has a growing bread note and a slight earthiness in the finish.

Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy amber pour, thin soapy off-white head, no lacing. Malty and bready nose, caramel, grassy notes in the background. Medium body, medium to high carbonation. Average mouthfeel and texture, somewhat thick, chewy, light sticky but quite fizzy. Moderately sweet taste balanced with bitter notes in the background. Aroma of tosted caramel, bread, dried fruits. Sugary, molasses. Lingering alcohol in the background, drying. Medium lasting finish, dry, sticky, boozy. Ok.

Bottled 330ml (Santa Maria, Cabo Verde)
Copper colour, small off-white head. Harsh sweet caramel aroma. Medium-bodied. Caramelly sweet, malty flavour. Simple industrial doppelbock but flavour is better than aroma indicates.
