1906 is the beer range of Hijos de Rivera, the family-owned Galician company from A Coruña that began brewing in 1906. Its three regular beers are the amber La Milnueve (Reserva Especial), Red Vintage, which revives the old Especial Extra recipe known as La Colorada, and the black Black Coupage. De Bodega is the unpasteurised version of the Reserva Especial. The brand's slogan reads Para una inmensa minoría, “for an immense minority”.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
