About
Casa Agria Specialty Ales is a small brewery focusing on mixed fermentation farmhouse style ales and barrel aged wild ales in Ventura County, California. Like much of California, Ventura County agriculture and farming has played a vital role in the development of the communities here throughout time. The mild climate and rich soil allows for several harvests throughout the year making it one of the most valuable resources here. For these reasons the farmhouse style is a perfect style to refresh during a warm dry winter and a mild summer day alike from one harvest to the next. Further influence is found in the food ingredients and diverse cultural traditions of the people who shaped the California of today.

El Camino Del Sol from Casa Agria

7.9/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 9 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Poured from a 16 oz can dated 07/28/2017. Aroma is super hop forward with tons of citrus, especially orange, mandarin and tangerine. Lighter tropical fruit notes with mango, melon and passion fruit. Some light dank and resin notes. Light wheat and cracker malt notes hiding in the background. Pours a super hazy, dull orange straw color with a medium sized, medium thick and frothy, white head that shows nice retention as it slowly recedes to a thin film that lingers. Flavor has a medium light sweetness with moderate wheat and lighter cracker malt notes. Medium bitterness. Quite a bit of hop profile with more citrus and lighter tropical fruit and dank notes. Hope are definitely not as pronounced as in the aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really nice, hazy DIPA. Hop profile could be a bit stronger in the flavor though. I really like the hop profile in the aroma. Fruity, but balanced between citrus and tropical fruit with some dank notes to smooth the fruit over.

5.2/10 — Appearance 2 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 6
Well it looks like mud, no head, so pretty ugly. On the nose, it’s yeasty with a touch of that yeasty, diacetyl and lupulin powder you get from green beer. Bitter, really yeasty, and that messes it up. The bitterness doesn’t show much in the way of bright hops, mostly just that same sharp bitterness. Alcohol in the finish isn’t bad as a way to lend balance, but the malts aren’t doing anything to help this. An unbalanced mess.

500mL can, pours an opaque peachy golden with a small white head. Aroma is very pithy, with lots of stone fruits, resinous hops, citrus and lots of yeast. Flavour is very cloudy, with lots of yeasty notes, resinous hops, citrus notes, and stone fruity pith. Very pithy and yeasty. A little jumbled but it's done very well. Nice stuff.
