Back to basics, after reading up on German beer history.  Feirabend (sic)!  Dortmunder Export style!  Naparbier!  Ok, it's not a German-made beer, but you can't deny that Naparbier is a respectable and trustworthy brewery, voted best in Spain a few years ago no less.  Although temperatures have gone down, and there's even been some rain, there's nothing wrong with having a nice, light, easy-drinking beer for an evening chat with friends.  Not that I wouldn't be happy with a stout, but sometimes that kind of darkness is threatening when you want to talk about freedoms and rights and...things you raise your voice about.

Not Day of the Dead?

Very golden beer, fluffy white head, it's a perfect example of the typical beer.  It has a tiny bit of sourness in a grainy aroma, just enough to give it a little something unexpected.  It's just a little bitter at first, but suddenly an explosion of beery bitter wallops you in the mouth and disappears down your throat as soon as you swallow.  It's a little fizzier than I would expect, so the mouthfeel isn't quite comfortable enough for quick drinking.  It has a serious feel to it, while light in the mouth the flavor gives it weight and power.  Without being too complicated the beer demands attention.  The name fits perfectly in this case.
