La Socarrada from Premium Beers From Spain is a winter gastro-ale from Valencia, brewed with three malt varieties, rosemary and rosemary honey. The beer undergoes double fermentation without added carbonation and remains unfiltered and unpasteurised, contributing to its characterful profile.

The name references the lightly smoky notes that distinguish this beer. On the nose, honey and herbal rosemary lead, complemented by subtle dried fruit and a light woody touch. The palate reveals an amber malt backbone with green herbal notes and dried fruit, while the finish remains remarkably fresh despite the 6% ABV.

This is a beer that functions well as a food companion across diverse dishes, where the herbs and honey add complexity without overwhelming the palate.
