It’s not a craft beer, but it has nostalgia factor, and was in fact the biggest brewery in Spain 100 years ago. El \u00c1guila’s unfiltered, historic, lager seems very similar to Boston Lager to me, so even as an arm of Heineken we can be pretty comfortable that reasonable beer is produced. This is Dorada, “inspired” by the original recipe, apparently with the addition of caramelized malts to give it a little more depth and character. I’m not sure which one is closer to the first beers that El \u00c1guila has putting out in 1900, but by that time either one was perfectly possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost unnaturally clear, like some kind of artificial resin. Good fluffy head, though, and not a bad aroma. There’s a little freshness and grain, with a little snap to it. The taste is very lagery and stronger than you expect from the appearance. It’s more on the sweeter side than the bitter, a kind of daily lager feel. Although bright and extra-present in the mouth, it doesn’t leave a lot behind. It’s a more modern type than the unfiltered, more like what people claim to be looking for when in search of a relaxing little brew to hang out with. I could see it as a buddy to a meal or lubricating conversation, but it isn’t much of a marvel by itself. I guess not everything has to jump on you and slap you in the face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
