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.

Otra que se une a la gilipollá de darle la vueltecita al bote antes de servirla, desde luego los de marketing del Águila se coronaron con la idea. Está es la Rambler's sin filtrar del Dia, pero con otro nombre. La misma mierda refrescante y de fácil beber.

Kolor złoty, klarowny, dość głęboki, piana biała, obfita, dość trwała. Zapach słodowy, suche liście, trochę starej trawy, skórki z jabłek, ogólne utlenienie. W smaku raczej pełne, słody, łuski, karton, trochę suchych ziół i świeżych liści. W tle lekki aldehyd. Goryczka niska ale zaznaczona, łuskowa, roślina, dość tępa. W ustach lekko muli. Nasycenie wysokie

Pite z puszki. Zapach dość ciężki, słody, skórki z jabłek, trochę trawy. W smaku pół wytrawne, jasne słody, trochę jasnego chleba, odrobina jasnego karmelu, może biszkopt, trochę trawy i suszonych ziół. Goryczka niska, trzeba szukać, łuskowa. W ustach dość okrągłe i treściwe jak na smak i styl. Nasycenie wysokie

50cl can from KCM; Vantaa.
Enjoyed from the can.
Mostly some maize/corn in flavor, sweetish and not very refreshing despite having it pretty cold. Leaves a sad taste in your mouth.

11.2 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a tiny white head and poor retention. No lacing. Sweet malt aroma. Very good, basic lager flavor with no Euro sulfur notes. Clean and smooth. Lightly sweet. Crisp and refreshing. Medium body and medium carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected.

1 Litre bottle from SUMA supermarket.
Label looks quite similar to a san miguel brewed beer (according to untapped), but this version I have here has the text CERVESA GARAGARDOA at the top of the label which is not there in the old version. Perhaps sumo and gourmet retained the brand, but moved to font salem for the beer.
I felt tempted to create this as a pale lager, but the label says pilsen.

Clear yellow white fluffy head mild malty aroma, slighlty metallic hops, but that metallic note went away quite fast.
flavor is mild malty, bordering slightly buttery or toasty, a soft almost velvety water treatment and about as little hoppy bitterness as they would be able to get away with, without the beer going flat. Brewed , i think , to be easy drinking and drinakble in large quantities.
I might becrazy, but it tastes more portugese to me, than spanish. bottle found in las palmas, gran canaria, and no hints i can find of portugese origin so i'll put it at font salem (spain).
