Description
Our brewery is, today, the oldest craft beer factory in the Canary Islands. It was founded by a German master brewer in 1999. It is a family business in which several generations work hand in hand to produce a product of which they can be proud. Since 1999 we have given everything to offer a high quality product. We started with a small factory already set up in San Fernando. Thanks to constant growth, production was transferred to Arinaga in 2004, building the current factory for it.

Bottle, at B2. A clear brown beer with a dense finger thick offwhite head. Roasted malts, toffee, caramel and a touch of dried fruits. Roasted malts and toffee driven flavor with prunes and some brown sugar in the flavor. Medium bodied and softly carbonated. Medium length finish. A decent brown ale. Nothing special going on. 200107

bottle from small supermarket in small town we passed on a jeep safari. in gran canaria. clear yellow, smooth offwhite head. pretty solid dry pils aroma, a little bit yeasty and wheat malty sugary or bready sweetness on top of that. flavor has some bitter industrial hops over it, but also a good not one-dimensional malty balance, so not that bad. does have a slightly metallic aftertaste.

50 cl bottle at Te Lo Dijes Perez, Las Palmas. Muddy, black body with a thin lightly tanned head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, coffee, cocholate and a sourish note. Sweaty socks. Taste is sweet, bur with an underlying sourness. Light to medium body with thinner texture and a soft carbonation. Finishes sweet with chocolate and caramel malts. Feels like a home brew made by a mediocre beginner. Sorry guys, it’s back to the brew kettle.

Bottle at Monday Club Erzbierschof. Good and sweet banana, but pretty flat and thus not particularly refreshing.
