When I originally read the label and saw Cervesza, I expected a beer comparable to Corona, but I was pleasantly surprised to pour a clear and colourful Brown Ale. Well, if you read my first post you know I am a big fan of the category, with Big Rock Traditional Ale and Newcastle Brown Ale being formative in my taste in beer.
This brown ale does not disappoint. Refreshing and full of chocolate, toasted malts, caramel, and feeling creamy as is goes over the tongue. This is not only a beer to buy, this one is worth looking for in my opinion.
Yum.
Cervasas Cucapa from Mexico. Advertised as an American brown ale. Easy pour little head. Nutty aroma but bitter taste and yet malty and hoppy. Not sure if it's a summer drink - hops, or a winter brew - malty and dark. Maybe a Mexican winter? Flatish rather than sparkly. Nicely paired with Babybel cheese ... Maybe likewise for havarti or other soft cheese.
