Christophe Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Rounding off the day 2 action: In the red corner, weighing in at a massive 10%, a saison port barrel aged ale to blow your head off, complementing piri-piri chicken....LETRA IMP5RIO! In the other red corner, weighing in at a measly in comparison 4.8%, a pilsner out of Seville, complementing paella....CRUZCAMPO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurph Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Cruzcampo is owned by Heineken. A barrel-aged saison sounds superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Had to go for the girly pilsner, Spain have a good track record with beer, also 10% is a bit much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Any barrel aged beer I’ve tried hasn’t been great, so played it safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 The CruzCampo is a lovely lager but suffers from the EFES syndrome, it tastes better in Spain than it does here!!!Brewed under Licence just doesn't cut it for me I'm afraid!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 Spain take the points, bold move from the Portuguese starting with a maverick player but it’s back to the drawing board for the rest of the group stages for them...

Pretty sure it's the most-produced beer in Spain. It's just a standard lager. Disappointed by many of the results so far, but I assume most on here do prefer lager to other beers. The idea of a port barrel-aged saison really excites me, how they would keep it fresh tasting and the darkness of the port would cut right through that. Cruzcampo is nothing but a generic lager beer.
