Pour is a clear copper with a large white head. Aroma is a little hone and caramel malt. Flavor is a little toasted malt with also a touch of butterscotch. Finish is clean but a bit sweet. Kind of all over the place with nothing standing out. My bottle says this was brewed in Puerto Rico.

Bottle at de Nada, Guildford. Slightly opaque amber. Thin foamy off-white. Aroma is malty, with burnt caramel and a boozy edge with hints of dark fruit. Flavourwise there's a bitter woody boozy core with a slightly spur Ness, enveloped in carmalised fruit sweetness. Doughy malts. Light. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation provides lift. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Nice.

$2.75 single from Appalachian. Best by 12/26.
Extra frothy, sticky, amber pour.
Sticky, Euro malt, vegetal, menthol.
Sweet, frothy, sticky, Honey Nut Cheerios, half n half, industrial sharpness, faded resin.
Frothy but ca't get it up enough to crisp-ify. Needs to be ice cold to tolerate.
Bleh.

Tap at Sectreto de la Luna, because there is a science museum nearby, which has pictures of the moon. Clear chestnut. Malt, caramel, metallic, hint of butter. Full, juicy, a bit creamy. Good drinkability. I like. It came with tapas. I like more.

0.33l bottle. Aroma is grassy, grainy and papery. Pours clear amber color with thin soapy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet caramelly with dried fruity acidity, following is grassy, earthy and toasted, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is dry and moderate bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Nothing special about it…
