La Sagra Criolla
Criolla is La Sagra's red ale, top fermented from seven barley malts and finished with American hops. It pours an intense copper red over a dense body. The nose is fruity, with red berries and dried plum. On the palate caramel and toasted bread crust come forward, the fruit returns alongside them, and a gently bitter, slightly roasty close follows. At 6.1 percent it drinks rounder than its moderate bitterness suggests.
