Comment: A Santa Claus beer, or even better a seasonal X-mas beer. Strange when drinking this beer ar 28° Celcius during the month of November. Quite unreal.
IMG_0146 * Commercial Description: The once strongest beer in the world is back ! Brewed only once a year on December 6. Samichlaus is aged for 10 months before bottling. This beer is perhaps the rarest in the world. Samichlaus may be aged for many years to come. Older vintages become more complex with a creamy warming finish. Serve with hardy robust dishes and desserts, particulary with chocolates, or as an after dinner drink by itself. Brewed under the exclusive licence of Feldschlösschen-Hürlimann-Holding, Switzerland. * 4752 x 3168 * (5.23MB)

IMG_0158 * A strong lager at 7 vol%. Formerly called Zaragozana Export, and brewed at La Zaragozana. http://www.ponteambar.com/ Not bad at all. It even reminds me of Belgian ales like Palm, De Koninck, etc... i.e. good quality. * 3168 x 4752 * (4.81MB)

IMG_0160 * The walls at La Cervezateca are beautifully ornamented with beer commercials. On the right side this old bry. Roman sign, featuring Special Maters. * 2758 x 4584 * (7.69MB)

IMG_0161 * Inevitable -- The restrooms. Time to produce Heineken :) Anyway, what a great visit has this become people. I can only advise everyone to try this Belgian beer pub at Torremolinos. Imagine flying in November from cold, rainy Belgium (2.30 hours) towards hot sunny Costa del Sol, and being able to visit a 100+ beer pub is quite some fairytale really.............. CHEERS !
