Description
Mala Gissona was founded in Oiartzun in 2015 by Iban Zabala and Manu Murillo. Its name comes from the old Icelandic-Basque pidgin expression ''For ju Mala Gissuna'', meaning you´re a bad man, used in the 15th century by whale hunters. They have a taproom in San Sebastián, the Mala Gissona Beer House.

Taste is slightly dry sour-ish mineraly, weeds, bloodlike minerals, sour-ish roasted grain, toast, dusty spices, soil, sour grass, paper, caramel, old nuts. Medium bitterness, slightly harsh sour-ish roasted mouthfeel. So boring.
