Description
Font Salem is a Spanish company that markets its products both in Spain and in neighboring Portugal. Their strength is making beer, soft drinks and water for third parties. Their industry experience is over 25 years, as they have earned the trust of the major companies they work with (Mercadona, El Corte Inglés, Lidl, Eroski etc.). Grupo Damm acquired the company in several steps since 1999.

The company has three plants, two in Valencia and one in Portugal. The one in El Puig de Santa María, in Valencia, is dedicated to brewing beer, the second, in Salem, Valencia, makes soft drinks. The Santarém factory in Portugal produces both beer and soft drinks.

Light skunk (thanks green bottle) but generally bland and inoffensive.

330ml bottle. Clear, yellow-ish, dark golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grainy, strawy, minimally musty aroma, a touch of horse dung, plain hoppy overtones with a touch of oxidation. Taste is plain bitter hoppy, strawy, pale malty basis, hints of oxidation, minimally soapy overtones. Watery texture, dry palate, medium, mildly prickly carbonation. Watery, expressionless, unpleasant strawy flavours - more or less horrible.

(Atención: esta es la versión de 'Steinburg suave' de Font Salem para Mercadona, no confundir con la versión de Martens, también para el mismo supermercado).
Le pillé una a mi hermana de la nevera para tomar algo mientras estaba en su casa. Color dorado claro, limpia, espuma blanca de corta retención. Aroma a sirope de maiz, extracto de lúpulo, mantequilla rancia...En boca sabe a extracto industrial, no voy a decir de ella que esta asquerosa pero casi, . A quien le guste que la disfrute con salud, pero no es para mí. Bastante peor que la versión de Martens.

33 cl bottle from Buy Best Wine & Liquor in Hamilton. Honey gold pour. Bubbly white head. Grainy cereal malt aroma. Flavor is light grain with notes of corn and grassy hops. Probably best with spicy food. Not very good on its own.

Can from Eroski, Pamplona. Golden with a head. 100% Malta, which I took as malt, although it's a standard lager, not particularly malty, more towards Belgian in taste given its strength, fair hoppiness and pleasant enough aftertaste.
