I found it by coincidence in a supermarket I don’t use to go. I had heard about it and gave it a chance. Back home, I had pork meat with nuts for dinner what I expected to be a good company for the Alhambra. As I opened the beer part of the beer poured out. That made me afraid of a too sttrong carbonation, but what was my surprise when I found a not so strongly carbonated beer with a really nice taste. A little malty, cereal flavoour and a strong "touch" I can only assign to the yeast. Wonderful experience with fried meat + soft spices and good chunk of bread.

This,(my favourite Spanish beer), is a really welcome change from the usual lager type cervezas, goes well with olives or especially well with roasted almonds. Muy bien! mi gusta mucho!

Bottle found at Frits P Århus. Golden amber colour. Beige head. Aroma of caramel and bread. Taste of roasted malt, nut, caramel and hops. Pleasant medium mouthfeel with dry finish. The alcohol (7,2) shines a tiny bit through in the finish. A great strong lager from Granada, Spain.

Red. Nice and complex. Far better than most Spanish lagers. The alcohol is very well hidden.
