Bottle in Alcuida, mallorca picked up from local Spar. A mostly clear bright gold yellow coloured pour with a lasting frothy white head. Aroma is earrhy grains, straw, bretty yeast funk, lemon rind, lime twist, midget gems. Flavour is composed of airy light rustic grains, wheat, lemongrass, very fizzy, bretty funk, pineapple. Palate is way over carbonated, airy bubbles, no liquid, very dry finish

33 cl bottle at Mariner Club, Port d'Alcudia, Majorca. A dark amber to orange hazy pour with a very short-lived off-white head. Aroma is porridge, yogurt, elderberry, bitter lemon, coriander. Dry, slick, medium to full-bodied. Quite bitter yet crisp. Long-lasting piney aftertaste.

bottle from el corte ingles. Unclear yellow, smooth white head. aroma is sligthly yeasty and sourish. flavor is sourish like apple juice then quite yeasty like a belgian beer, with a somewhat malty ending. Had this been a wild ale or a sour beer I would have thought it was good stuff, but if the intention was to make a pilsener, then it's a total fail of the kind you could expect to find from a new brewery 20 years ago, not now... Or perhaps forastere simply do sour lagers and I did not know that. In any case, I usually rate according to taste, not to what is claimed on the label, so I'll try to rate it while not expecting a pilsener. Should this one I have here be rated as a pils, it would be 1.8 or lower. BBF 13-08-2023 rated 02-06-2023
