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.

Bottle from Etre Gourmet webshop, Grez Douceau, Belgium. Had this Saturday 16th May 2020, still on CORVID-19 lockdown, on a Zoom Cocktail Party call with Bob and friends. Pours black with a small head. Bourbon immediately apparent on the nose. In the mouth this is quite warning, it's got a kick, bourbon, chocolate and roasted malts mingle. It's a good Impy.

Bottle at home. Three year old. Pours a dark brown to black colour with a beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, oak and nougat. Flavour is similar with more ash and dark chocolate. Has a silky mouth feel, full-bodied and a light bitterness. Well-balanced and roasted. Not much from the bourbon though.
