"Well, had my first run-in with Spanish tapas this evening, while hanging out with my wife, as she attended a birthday dinner for her friend. And while I confess to being a bit underwhelmed with the service and the cuisine -- ever try to split a single tapas dish amongst eight people? -- I do have to admit that this beer made things a bit more pleasant.
A world-class Lager? Nah. Rather tame and "safe", really. You won't find anything here that you won't find in many other (read: better) beers, from {fill-in-the-blank} country.
So why am I not disappointed with this? Only in that for what it is, it's not bad. That is to say, for a non-intrusive beer, that lets the food do the talking, this was easy enough to work with. An easy drinker it seems to me, with just enough girth in the malt bill to matter.
Room for improvement? Sure. Would like to see what would happen if the hops in this beer took of their "Cloak Of Invisibility", to see what sort of "role" they could "play" in this "game". (Ok, enough cornball AD&D references!).
But seriously? I have few complaints about this beer. "It is what it is," as the saying goes. And there are much worse Spanish beers out there you could order at a Tapas bar: Estrella? We're still not on speaking terms!
But this one? Not a bad quaffer. Not at all.

"Bottle. Golden colour with a very slim white head. Sweet malts, corn and a touch of fruit in the aroma. Sweet, metallic, touch of hops maybe, and watery, quite highly carbonated. Typical Spanish fare."
