De color ámbar, con un dedo de espuma de baja retención. Cuerpo ligero y carbonatación media. Aroma malteado y a caramelo. Sabor afrutado, con un un final seco.

Lovely dark golden colour, pleasant aroma, malty taste with a little complexity, overall this is a winner for me and I never would have guessed that this is gluten free. Dangerously easy drinking for a beer of this strength!

L:pale golden hazy yellow with fast head and lace
S: hop forward jumps up but then followed closely by sweet rap art malt
T: very lightly carbonated with crispy hops and sweet malt finish
F: refreshing quality that sits lightly on the tongue
O: very nicely done

For a double malt, it is very smooth and rich. Has a deep copper color with a head that spreads to 3/4 inch. For a malt, very easy drinking, semi sweet, and pairs well with creamy and light finger foods.

Bottle at Old Chicago.

Pours a clear gold with a small but steady head of foam.

Smell is of grain, sweet kind of unpleasant malt.

Grainy and sweet taste, really big cereal..like a LA beings to the table.

Single. :)

 

Pours out pale amber in color. The head is thin and off-white that's gone in no time at all. Lacing is minimal and splotchy.

The nose has plenty of caramel. You also get plenty of grains and a honey note. Bitterness is almost none existent.

Lots of caramel sweetness. There is honey wheat bread, Maybe a slight molasses character. But mostly caramel malts.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied. Carbonation seems a bit high on it but I dig it. It feels crisp. At 7.2 abv its very easy to drink.

 

Mildly cloudy amber body; frothy, sudsy head; clinging foam along the glass. Scent of over-ripe fruit; peaches. The taste follows the aroma -- ripe fruit; robust bitterness, slightly dull; apricot. Heavy body; not quite syrupy yet full and dense.

Heavy, malt-forward beer, plenty of esters in the mix.

Bottle. Mid-amber in colour. Thin head.
Light aroma of toffee.
Mild sweet malt in taste. Caramelised sugar present.
Medium body and feel. Somewhat boozy.
I guess this could be a life saver if I was gluten intolerent.

Giving great review because it's great whether you have to drink gluten free or not. Great taste and body. If you like porters or stouts, you will not be dissatisfied!

The beers of this brand are usually a scam, especially their best known beer: estrella damm. I bought this by curiosity. I was surprised favorably. It does not look like a Damm beer, it smells of beer and on the palate you taste that you're having a beer! It's not a wonder, but it's beer!

 

 

Things are progressing nicely with regard to my ongoing and systematic eradication of the Bottle Backlog here at Chez Woody and the results are noticeable, but it becomes incumbent upon me to drink and review new beers as they become available. I refer to this as "chipping", since it is just odds & sods without any overarching theme, such as brewery and/or style.

From the bottle: "Crafted to Remove Gluten [-] Product fermented from grains gluten and crafted to remove gluten. The gluten content of this product cannot be verified, and this product may contain gluten."; "Originally Marzen style beer, thanks to the large amount of malt that gave the beer its full body and taste, was able to withstand the high summer temperatures so as to be consumed for several months. [undersigned] (Brewer?)".

I Pop!ped the cap & began a gentle pour, in keeping with my New Year's Resolution and my Lenten denial. Aggro pours from bottles are now (mostly) a thing of the past. Once decanted into an awaiting glass, an in-glass swirl raised a finger of foamy, rocky, tawny head with decent retention, leaving nice lacing in its wake. Color was solidly Amber (SRM = > 7, < 9) with NE-quality clarity. Nose had a sweetish, bready, malty quality, very much like Märzen. Mouthfeel was medium, The taste was sweet, bready, malty and very pleasant. I like these reverse-engineered gluten-free beers since they do not include sorghum which gives most G/F beers a really sharp sourness. Instead, by using standard grains, the taste remains much more traditional. Finish was sweet, very sweet even for an Oktoberfest/Märzen. Phew. I think that one of these is enough for my hophead self. YMMV.

 

Pours a clear, copper color. 1/3 inch head of an off-white color. Decent retention and good lacing. Smells of sweet malt, pale malt, Euro yeast, hint of hop, and a hint of wheat. Fits the style of a Marzen / Oktoberfest. Mouth feel is smooth and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of strong sweet malt, caramel malt, pale malt, hint of hops, slight Euro yeast, and a hint of wheat. Overall, decent appearance and aroma, with a good body, blend, and feel.

Looks great in glass, good head level...

Aroma is complex with lots of elements.

Taste is ok, however I have no understanding of the brown or double beer, as to why it is liked. It seems that all Spanish breweries prefer to create this, as opposed to an IPA, Tripel or porter. Not good for cold, hot, or with food, just heavy and with no interesting flavors...
