Cervesa Artesanal de Tarragon. This honey colored ale is elegant with a certain density in the glass, foam creamy white ivory tones and consistent with good persistence. Due to the presence of yeast in the second fermentation, the appearance is cloudy.

From Carrefour. In Teku glass. After dinner. Some honey but a bit flat in general in smell and taste. Nice ticklish feeling that hides its flatness and makes it refreshing

Hazy orange color with a foamy head that would keep building up.
Predominant aroma of honey and rotten fruit.
Flavor of biscuit malt and honey, but not necessarily very sweet, with some notes of roses, oranges and yeast. Although it has no wheat in the recipe, I could perceive some. Slightly acid, spicy and bitter aftertaste.
Light body with good carbonation.
Weird combination, something bothering me that I could not really grasp, some Band-Aid type flavor.

Poured from a 500ml bottle. Pours a deep dandelion yellow colour. The nose has sweet aromas of candy and fruit. The taste is light, clean and refreshing, if somewhat indistinct. This is the kind of the beer that's good with food on a warm day. Very drinkable, satisfying and pleasant.

Presentation: 11 oz. brown bottle with a "Best by" date printed on the cap. Served in a pint glass.

Appearance: Develops a one finger, white colored head, that goes down to a thin ring. It has a cloudy, bright yellow color and leaves behind some great lacing.

Smell: It has a sweet scent of honey and mango; with some malt and hops in the background.

Taste: It's a very sweet taste because of the malt and honey flavors. On top of that you have more sweetness courtesy of some fruit notes. Very refreshing, satisfying; not complicated, but interesting.

Mouthfeel: Good amount of carbonation. Light and easy to drink, but a bit cloying because of the sweetness.

Overall: Considering Spain isn't really known for its beer scene, this is a pleasant surprise. A light and refreshing brew that's good, intriguing and a great choice over its better known Mahou and Estrella compatriots, with food or by itself.

Hazy dark honey blonde with loose white froth. 3.5
Honey grahams and fresh cut hay hops on the nose. 3.5
Light biscuity malt, hint of apricot and a solid dose of honey sweetness, then noble hops. Gets gritty as it warms. 3
Plastic-y finish and herbal linger. Light leaning towards medium, round, some stick. 3.5

Solid blonde ale (not an APA) with definite honey presence. It could cloy, so not sure why sugar is added. Does better ice cold, which is a worry. And there’s a Band-Aid off flavor I can’t quite place. I’ve made plenty of homebrew like this.

330ml bottle –labeled as Rosita Original-. Snifter glass. Enjoyed on agt´11. (& many more times). Pale golden in color, hazy appearance. Brief crown, white in color, medium sized bubbles. Floral, hop & honey aromas. Sweet honey, slightly spiced flavor, notes of mango & banana, citrusy touch. Medium body & medium carbonation. Honey with hints of syrup on the aftertaste. Nice session beer.
