Still with Guineu and its fox, now an amber ale.  Again, it looks like a very solid offering, although nothing special or extra creative.  Simple Birita, casual, unfussy.

It seems extra heady, and it has a rich dark orange color.  Interesting aroma, a little honeyed and not very fruity.  There's a little bit of orange in the taste, but it's more watered down than I expected.  The first seconds of the sip give a bubbly heads-up but then it does down and practically disappears.  It's a good beer for sitting and relaxing but not thinking too much about.  A little snack to go with it would mix well.  Something kind of woody starts to come out after a few minutes, giving the beer more body and a little more interest, although it's not the kind of taste that I particularly favor.
