California Common Beer 5 º 30 IBU

Cerveza Artesana Minera

Minera Bonaplata is a refined California Common that masterfully balances the clean profile of lager yeast with the expressive fruitiness of ale-temperature fermentation. The sensory journey begins with a foundation of toasty malt and subtle caramel, providing a sturdy backdrop for distinct stone fruit esters reminiscent of peach and apricot. The hopping leans into traditional rustic territory, offering a woody character that grounds the sweeter fruit notes. This hybrid ale-lager presents a smooth, medium body and a crisp, refreshing finish. Its delicate bitterness provides enough structure to pair with medium-intensity meats without overshadowing the nuanced interweaving of grainy malt depth and herbal hop resonance.

Appearance. Medium amber to light copper (approximately 10–14 SRM). Generally clear with a moderate, off-white head showing good retention and light lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring herbal and woody hop notes. Supporting this is a light fruitiness suggesting peach and apricot, alongside a low to moderate caramel and toasty malt backbone. Fermentation is generally clean, though punctuated by noticeable fruity esters.

Taste. Initial malt impression of toast and light caramel, followed by a firm, rustic hop flavor with distinct woody and herbal qualities. Moderate hop bitterness provides balance against the grainy malt sweetness. The mid-palette reveals subtle peach and apricot esters. Finishes fairly dry and crisp with a lingering, clean grainy aftertaste and a touch of hop resin.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, well-integrated texture. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a lively and refreshing prickly sensation. No significant alcohol warmth is perceived at this strength.
