This Enxebre Pale Ale offers a characterful take on an Ordinary Bitter, showcasing a unique Galician terroir. Utilizing three barley malts, it builds a foundation of toasted biscuit and bready complexity, accented by subtle threads of caramel. The aromatic profile is defined by homegrown Galician hops used in fresh form, delivering a high-intensity blend of citrus zest, wildflowers, and fresh herbs. While atypical for its style due to its robust 6.6% ABV, it maintains the traditional balance of bready malt and firm bitterness. The experience concludes with a dry, clean finish where citrus and herbal notes linger alongside a mild, integrated warmth.
