La Cala Príncipe
This Belgian Dubbel offers a sophisticated sensory experience defined by its deeply toasted malt profile and vibrant fruity character. It pours a rich copper with reddish hues, supporting a dense and exceptionally persistent golden foam. The aroma is a complex tapestry of caramelized sugar, chocolate, and dark fruits like raisins and plums, lifted by a distinctive floral note. On the palate, the 7.4% ABV provides a well-integrated warmth that carries flavors of toasted grain and spicy yeast phenols. With its medium-full body and lingering malty finish, it balances rich sweetness against a restrained, earthy bitterness.
