Pack 8 Catalan Craft Beers

We have prepared a Special Pack with 8 Catalan craft beers for you to know the local beers of Catalonia. The region stands out in the national craft beer scene, as a precursor and reference region. Some of the first craft beer recipes in the country were brewed and marketed in this community, and some of the benchmark breweries of the Spanish craft movement, awarded on numerous occasions nationally and internationally, are located here.

In the Pack we have included:

• Pirouette Belgian Tripel: A clean-looking amber-colored beer with creamy white foam. Aromas of ripe white fruit, spices, vanilla and toffee. In the mouth silky texture of medium body and sweet entry flavor that evolves into a pleasant dry nuance. Bronze medal at the 2019 Barcelona Beer Challenge. Proposal by FDL Beer Project that mgoes well with grilled fish, pasta carbonara and desserts such as strawberries with cream.

• Comrade Belgian Dubbel: mahogany colored beer and creamy beige foam crown, in aroma you will appreciate hints of caramel and notes of ripe red fruit. These nuances that you will notice when you smell it, are perfectly integrated with its flavor: with a sweet touch at the beginning, which evolves into a balanced taste. Proposed by FDL Beer Project which mgoes well with pâté, red meat, cured meats or cured cheeses..

• Blonde Ale: a light blonde beer, with fine and abundant bubbles that make up the white foam that crowns it. With 4.5% alcohol, it gives off herbal, citrus and fruity aromas that, together with a light body and a cheerful carbonation, provide accessibility and increase the refreshing sensation of the liquid. It concludes with a dry, pleasant and moderately bitter finish. Created by Espiga, pairs well with appetizers, salads, fish, white meats ( Gold Medal winner at the 2021 National Beer Championship ).

• English Pale Ale: with an attractive amber hue with reddish highlights and creamy ocher foam, with different aromatic nuances from the malt, reminiscent of bread crust, grain or toasted caramel as well as earthy, floral and herbal notes typical of traditional hop varieties. In the mouth, it presents a light body and moderate carbonation, pronounced earthy and bitter character, hints of chocolate and spices. Created by Espiga, it pairs well with fish and chips, cold cuts or English cheeses ( Gold Medal winner at the 2021 National Beer Championships ).

• Sansa Amber Ale: A classic Amber Ale where hints of malt intermingle with hops. Just the right bitterness, well balanced between alcohol content and body. Malt and hop bitterness are balanced and mutually supportive, but can vary either way. Caramel sweetness and hop flavor/bitterness that can linger to a medium to full finish. Brewedby La Pirata, it pairs well with spiced meats, German sausages, roast chicken or a pork stew (Gold Medal at the 2019 Barcelona Beer Challenge)

• Hard Decision Oatmeal Stout: a beer that comes from the evolution of the acclaimed and award-winning LAB001, a real treat for the most delicate and demanding palates. Of extreme creaminess and absolute density, it is the perfect dessert that will last until after dinner. Coffee, glass and cigar made beer. Brewed by La Pirata, it pairs well with chocolate or cream-based desserts or as a dessert itself (Gold Medal at the 2019 Barcelona Beer Challenge).

• IPA Amarillo IPA: American-style IPA, blonde, light-bodied and creamy foam, and powerful but balanced flavor. Long and dry bitterness. Recipe with 4 hops where Amarillo stands out, both in flavor and aroma. This beer is made with Amarillo hops, which is characterized by a very powerful citrus aroma. Created by La Guineu, pairs well with grilled or barbecued meats with chimichurri sauce (Bronze Medal at the Barcelona Beer Challenge 2021).

• Blat de Sac Weisse: Classic wheat beer. Along with the classic aromas of a wheat beer, we find that of hops. The wheat sweetness is noticeable in the mouth, but it does not hide the herbal hops used in this recipe. It is a light beer with a low alcohol content. Created by La Guineu, it pairs well with hearty, spicy or spicy dishes and carrot cakes.
