Description
The brewing company of the Montseny was born with the desire to provide a craft beer of the highest quality: our beers are handcrafted and natural. We are a microbrewery with a productive capacity of 3.000 litres in each development. Through the system of English traditional elaboration (with maceration by the method of simple infusion), the production process is virtually manual. Because of these unique features of elaboration, handcrafted beers are produced. In the brewing of the Montseny we bottle natural beers and unpasteurised. The carbonic gas is generated naturally by the yeast that is contained in the bottle. We can say that they are living beers that evolve over time. The alcoholic fermentation is a traditional way to food processing to lengthen their preservation allows us to not add any artificial preservative to the beer. Our microbrewery specialises in beers of the family of the Ales or high fermentation, unlike the majority of the national productions, which are of the family of the Lager or bottom-fermented. It is recommended to drink our beers, if well fresh, less cold than the Lager.

Can 33 cl. Pours golden with a slight haze and a small, white head. Interesting spicy hop aroma, a hint of onion. Quite different from standard US aroma hops. Medium body, sweet malty, hops add some flavor too but also leave a solid bitterness. 170119

33cl can, merci Carles pour le partage. Dorée virant sur léger orange, col blanc. Arôme est excellent au niveau fruité donc un effet pêche blanche et tropical, le côté lager est en retrait et je note un apport léger de malt pils. Palais est léger, crisp, frais, avec un plein houblonné super plaisant d'agrumes, tropical, pêche. Une excellente nouvelle de Montseny.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 09/10/2020, xmas gift pack, merci Juanra. Cuivrée, col fin crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme au nez malté finement grillé, le tout sous couvert de fines effluves de winter spices dont anisé. Petite note de chocolat en retrait. Palais est malté, caramel, pâle, cristal malt, un peu grillé avec une fine amertume sur la fin. Petit effet biologique avec une douceur mielleuse de châtaigne et une note épicée qui revient en fin de bouche - anisé.

Color marron, cristalino, espuma beige de mu poca duración. Aroma a maltas tostadas, frutos secos, pasas y caramelo. Sabor ligeramente dulce, tostado, presencia alcohólica y madera. Final ligeramente amargo, el alcohol se hace menos presente que anteriormente, ligeramente densa.
