Description
Cervecería Fauna. Es una microcervecería familiar fundada en el año 2012 por los hermanos Larios Rizo en la ciudad de Mexicali, Baja California. Desde sus inicios, se dedicaron a producir cervezas dirigidas a un público aventurero, curioso, y retador. El primer par de cervezas que ofrecieron al mercado artesanal cervecero tienen bastante personalidad, por lo cual ambas, Lycan Lupus y Penélope, fueron rápidamente posicionadas en la frontera entre lo intenso y lo agresivo.

Clear deep golden color with a fine head. Good lacing. Fine intensity in the aroma. Medium (+) body and an average carbonation level. Sweet like an double ipa. Not enough bitterness to back it up. Grapefruit hoppy, dried fruits, malty and some pine in the flavor. A little bit harse.

Bottle at the July DC tasting. Poured a clear pale color, hazy with a fluffy white head atop. This beer might not have been intended to smell or taste like it does, but it worked out. It reminds me of a Jolly Pumpkin beer in both aroma and flavor. Fizzy, dense carbonation. Light funky yeast notes throughout with a sprinkle of zesty citrus. Very light soapy finish. Strange, but good.
