one little birdie

On the first day of Beermas I went and bought for me

A lone eagle flying free

 


And now it's time for Beermas!  The only way to celebrate is with a beer every night, so here we go with DouGall's Leyenda.  It's an Extra Special Bitter, so there should be no disappointment.

It's one of those dark golden beers, and while there's a little foam on top, it's not much.  There isn't a whole lot of aroma either, just a slightly grainy, typically beer scent.  It's bitter for sure, with a woody background, a fresh and mouthfilling beverage.  It's a pretty simple flavor, not a lot of layers of fruit or spices, just a solid and rather traditional sort of beerishness.  In the space between holidays some might be looking for more exotic or complicated drinks, but there's nothing wrong with a simple and uncomplicated beer.  As long as it's a good one, of course.  Certain tasteless products need not apply.
