Back in 2011 we started brewing up our own craft beer using a 5 gallon system on our rooftop patio right in the heart of the Gòtic neighbourhood of Barcelona. At first we brewed just for ourselves and for some similarly minded friends that own bars and restaurants in the area. By keeping our focus on quality rather than quantity things have grown steadily for us and we have joined the grass roots Barcelona craft beer revolution. We develop the beers that we want to drink and name them all after our favourite Barcelona neighbourhoods.
From a Carrefour on La Rambla. Pours a coppery color, slightly hazy with smaller beige head. Caramel nose with slight fruitiness. Slightly sweet start, grassy hoppiness with gentle bitterness. Medium body.

Shared bottle at Barcelona. Pours clear amber with off-white head. Aroma of caramel, toffee, some floral notes. Taste has some sweetness but is dominated by too much hop bitterness - unbalanced. Medium bodied, dry finish.

Bottle shared with Stuu666. Pours clear golden amber with a thin white head. Aromas of crystal malt, marmalade, dried orange peel. Taste is sweet, caramel, thin finish.
RBESG 2016 in Barcelona. Shared bottle at the Red Ant, 4.5%. Gluten free. Deep golden to amber colour. Malty and "dusty" aroma and flavour, Not my favourite.
8th July 2016: shared bottle with the RBESG guys in Red Ant. Strange beer really. Deep amber with a weak beige head. Malts rule the nose and taste with a light caramel sweetness which is offset by some more harsh malt roastiness: very little hop action.
