Today, another beer from my awesome (beer-wise and otherwise) Spanish holidays.
- Name: Mahou Negra
- Brewery: Mahou S.A. (Grupo Mahou – San Miguel)
- City: Madrid
- City: Spain
As the name already points out, this beer pour out of the bottle with a dark brown, almost black color. The head topping the glass has a tan color and is quickly settling. The moderate aroma of roasted barley is complemented by coffee and caramel. The taste is nothing out of the ordinary for dark beers. Sweetnes upfront, followed by roasted malts and bitterness. There is also a faint taste of coffee, and all together finishes with a decent, although not too strong bitterness.
A pretty strainghtforward dark beer. Smooth and tasty, but otherwise ordinary. Still worth a try.
