A few in Valencia today. The Cruzcampo is being enjoyed on the train back to Barcelona just now!

Had about a dozen different Baladin beers in Italy during the summer, including that L'IPA...very nice.

Aye it was good. Had two of them with lunch.

Taco Bell in Spain do beer as an option for the drink on their meal deal, same price as a soft drink. Its brewed specially for them and is a surprisingly passable lager.

Please never drink this nonsense.

Thought it would just be a brown ale. Instead it tasted like salty vegan bacon with nondescript mulch.

Does it use a smoked malt? I've tried to like smoked beers really hard, from the Schlenkerla stuff thru grodziskies and a smoked helles and I've managed to isolate the taste as being the Tofurky brand lunchmeat slices, which ties in vegan bacon. To the point that this wasn't actually the worst of them, due to the spice rub (its brewed with the spice rub Manny's use for their pastrami) in the wort playing with that note.

Not sure, would need to check (still have one can!).

Doesn’t say on their site. If it *is* that, you might be best giving smoked beers a bodyswerve if you’re getting the exact same meat substitute note off them as I am. My mate’s been to Bamberg (where Schlenkerla is) and he reckons they’re way better accompanying food, but they’re still not for me.
