La Real del Duero

La Real del Duero Red Ale presents a striking deep reddish-copper hue, inviting the senses into a malt-driven experience typical of a well-crafted American Amber Ale. The profile is anchored by rich specialty malts, delivering evocative layers of caramel, buttery toffee, and a distinct touch of licorice. While the style often leans into New World hops, this expression keeps floral hop notes subtle, allowing the toasted grain character to take center stage. A gentle sweetness is expertly balanced by a mild bitterness and a faint, refreshing acidity, resulting in a clean, harmonious finish that celebrates malt complexity and a smooth, approachable character.

Aroma. Moderate malt intensity featuring prominent notes of caramel and toffee. Low to nearly absent hop aroma with a faint floral hint. Unique specialty malt contributions suggest a touch of licorice. Clean fermentation profile with no significant esters.

Taste. Initial malty sweetness leading into flavors of caramel and toffee. A subtle roasted grain character and a hint of licorice provide depth. Hop flavor is very low and floral.
