ABV: 8.0% IBU: 27 Ticks: 67
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, 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.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Eine Dose von diesem Bier brachte mir ein Kumpel von einem Spanienausflug. AUf der Dose wird es eindeutig als German Doppelbock beschrieben und mit seinen 8% alc passt das auch ganz gut. Es hat eine schöne rot-orange Farbe und eine Schaumkrone, die aber schnell in sich zusammenfällt. Es ist nicht son intensiv wie mancher deutsche Doppelbock, hat aber schöne fruchtige Aromen und einen vollen Körper. Nur hinten raus wirkt es ein bisschen müde. Ich würde es fast als Strand-Bock beschreiben - als Reminiszenz an die leichten südeuropäischen Strandbiere.

330ml bottle at Lullaby, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear copper colour with a mostly lasting frothy off-white head. The aroma is malt, light toffee caramel. The flavour is moderate sweet, light bitter, with a crisp, malt, toffee, light cardboard, mineral, light metallic, hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation.
