Light stout. A fair amount of roast malt up here, with nut and coffee. Pours dark brown with great head and lacing. Soft carbonation – 3 Cordilleras seem to have their carbonation and pours down pretty well, for what it’s worth. Finishes sour and bitter in a light dose. Well-balanced but light on overall feel for style. These guys need to get over the Latin American brewery standard of calling styles of beer colours and make up their minds about some actual styles and they will do better. On tap at Medellin Beer Factory in Parque Lleras.
