I was at a work function. Now - I like my bitter beers, I very much like VB and I really don't like citrus zest (orange, lemon or lime) at all, not even when used in cooking. <br /><br />Then I tasted this beer, Rosita.<br /><br />Don't be fooled by my initial description - this is not a beer impersonating alcoholic lemonade, far from it. It's beer through and through, it tastes like beer for sure - but - this beer is something different, very unexpected and just a little bit special. I would describe it as ever so subtly, almost imperceptively zesty, and thoroughly more-ish.<br /><br />I understand Rosita is even relatively hard to obtain in Spain, they are a small brewer by world standards so any time I see it in Australia, I grab all I can carry.<br /><br />So there I was on a sunny summer afternoon, sitting on a jetty, water lapping at the pylons, Rosita in hand, against the backdrop of Sydney Harbour..... <br /><br />Perfect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799406624501051043.post-45835894545305871212009-10-09T18:46:47.016+02:002009-10-09T18:46:47.016+02:00I love Rosita, it's one of the best Spanish be...I love Rosita, it's one of the best Spanish beers I've found so far here in BCN.Tomas Nihlénhttp://www.tomasnihlen.comnoreply@blogger.com
