Can 330ml (Carrefour Badajoz). Amber colour and small off-white head. Aroma has sweet caramalt and is a bit papery. Medium-bodied. Sweet and harsh flavour. Industrial low on malts low on hops.

Dorada tirando a naranja, de espuma generosa. Aroma a bizcocho, mandarina y serrín. En boca es suave al paladar, de tono dulce y floral. Sabor peculiar nada común, pero para nada desagradable, todo lo contrario. Flores, mandarina, toques especiados. Curiosa, diferente y que merece ser probada.

IPA from local brewery in Zaragoza in northeast Spain, thanks to my girlfriend Goedele for this unknown bottle! Medium thick, moussy, egg-white, regular, slowly breaking, dotty-lacing, eventually opening and thinning head on a near clear, deep golden beer with orangey hue, slight haze in the middle along with disparate strings of sparkling. Aroma of banana candy, hand soap, orange-flavoured Fruitella candy from when I was a child, lavender, bath foam, plaster, apple peel, sugared tea, something lemonade-like. Sweetish onset in a very clean, slick way, bit sugary even, apple and banana aspects, softish carb, some minerally notes; very slick, slender body, thinly caramelly and cereally maltiness, increasingly bittered by a quinine-ish, rooty, peppery hoppiness which fills the finish, ending with a wormwoody bitterness that lingers for quite a long time, along with something soapy or bubblegummy. The nose did not promise much, to put it kindly, but this beer does behave a lot better in the mouth: though thin and lacking in depth and power, it does offer a long-lasting, wormwoody, tonic-watery bitterness of a kind I have not encountered in IPA in a long time. Almost English IPA in style, but with a more powerful bitterness sitting closer to its West Coast heir - and even if the whole beer feels a bit half-hearted and misses the point in terms of aroma, this refreshing bitterness is an important plus for me personally so I cannot be too harsh on this one, which I feel is a bit underrated here.
