Traditional English-style beer made with Maris Otter as a base malt, and a touch of Cristal T50 and DRC and finally fermented with ale yeast, to which we have given the house touch with a light dry-hop from Bramling Cross. Blackberry, prune, and blackcurrant aromas. Light but at the same time tasty and balanced with just the right bitterness to drink by the gallon.
Hops: Bramling Cross

Ambar, bastante limpia, con bonita espuma blanquecina. Complejo aroma donde aparece caramelo, tofo, notas verbales y de frutos secos. Ligera de cuerpo y de gas contenido, con amargor moderado pero persistente, predominio de dulzor, y sabores de miel, bizcocho, y retrogusto herbal y cítríco de naranja.

Tap at the tribute named bar Guernica in Vitoria-Gasteiz, after a trip to the Beau Arts Museum. Slightly darker-amber with a glow. Crisp bitter with lovely light caramels in its background. Low bitterness.

En la copa luce color ambar, turbio, con espuma beige de media retención. En nariz me resulta más atractiva de lo que esperaba, notas de malta tostada, caramelo, lúpulo, moras, panquemado (tonya). En boca es ligera, pero con cierto cuerpo, suave, de muy fácil beber, mismos matices que los captados por el olfato con cierta adición ligeramente herbal y torrefacta, amargor suave pero bien sentido, trago bastante placentero. Muy rica, en general me ha gustado bastante.
