Kavos 21/7 2022. 50 cl can from Mini-Market in Kavos, Corfu. Blue version of Alfa’s usual can design with the big red “A” and a “Strong” in bold golden letters to underline that this is boozy stuff.
Pours clear yellow with a mid-sized white head. A bit bubbly. Settles as thin, flimsy layer of foam unable of covering the surface of the beer. No lacing.
Aroma is moderately intense with a sweet malty and fruity odor mingling with metallic alcohol. Sweet pale malts, peach and sour grains. Tinfoil and sharp booze.
Medium strong carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, lightly tingling texture.
Flavor is medium intense with a rather strong sweetness followed by a a moderately strong bitterness. Aftertaste is sweet with a boozy undertone. Lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry.
They seem to be pretty proud that the ABV is higher than 4,6. The big red “7%” on the can is a give away.
