Beer Review: Seaclouds – Jaira Cerveza Artesana

Today’s review is a brewery back to back, with another beer from Gran Canarian based brewers Jaira. ‘Seaclouds’ is a Vienna style lager, and so typically features a darker colour, when compared to your more commonplace lager styles, while also having a slight maltier sweetness to it and often a toasted quality to the flavour too.

I had always wanted to try a beer from Spanish based brewers Basqueland and it just so happened to be a collaboration with well-known American brewers, Great Notion. As the name implies, it is a Peanut Butter based Imperial Pastry Stout with … Continue reading Beer Review: Peanut Butter Prophecy -Basqueland x Great Notion
