A toasted Estrella Galicia 0,0 to accompany typical products of Galicia in Lugo

avatar

Hi friends,

It's been many months since I last wrote in the #beer community and today I do it to propose you a very tasty 0,0 roasted beer that is Estrella Galicia 0,0 roasted accompanying other typical products of Galicia and that I drank a few weeks ago in one of the four cities of Galicia that is Lugo.

Lugo and its history

Lugo is a small city in Galicia that has its foundation as a city in Roman times (Lucus Augusti) and this is something that can be seen within its historic center with some statues of Roman emperors and some sculptures that emulate chariots.

But if one thing differentiates Lugo from any city of Roman origin is that it still preserves a great Roman wall of more than 2Km perimeter that encloses the historic center of the city.

Some of the entrances to this historic center are pleasantly picturesque, such as the entrance that leads to the square of the Cathedral of Lugo.

Once inside the historic center one can quickly find a multitude of entertainment venues to enjoy a delicious beer where the great protagonist is the local beer Estrella Galicia.

Estrella Galicia 0,0 toasted

After this introduction from the city of Lugo I present to you the beer 0,0 tostadas Estrella Galicia, which is one of my favorite 0,0 beers because of its pleasant taste, unlike other 0,0 beers that usually taste like dirty water.

As you can see its color is dark amber with orange highlights. Its aroma is characterized by being complex and balanced, where you can perceive toasted notes coming from the malt, with subtle aromas of caramel.

It is a very versatile beer that pairs well with a wide variety of foods. In my case, as it could not be otherwise, I accompanied my beer with an octopus a feria, a typical Galician dish based on cooked octopus accompanied by salt, paprika and olive oil.

It is a beer brewed with water from the city of A Coruña,and mixes 6 types of malt with different degrees of roasting with hops Nugget, Perle and Sladek hops.

It is one of the best-selling 0.0 beers in Spain and has won several international prizes such as the International Beer Challenge, which recognizes the quality and flavor of its beers, as well as its dedication to innovation and excellence in brewing.

It is an exceptional beer, despite not having alcohol and can even be a good accompaniment to another of the typical Galician products such as the tarta de Santiago, a cake made from almonds.

Eager to return to Galicia soon and continue discovering beers from this great brewery that is Estrella Galicia.

Best regards.

The city of Lugo looks beautiful. Love all those picturesque spot which I think is a perfect place to stroll around. And after a fun stroll, a beer would be awesome. The drink and the foods looks really good. Although I don't know the taste of beer.

It is a good non-alcoholic beer.

Galician octopus is spectacularly tasty when cooked in the traditional way in copper or bronze pots.

I would taste that beer. But I wouldn't dare on an octopus :-)

On je to ve skutečnosti takový lepší polotmavý Birell. Vzhledem k tomu, jak máš aktuálně nastavené chuťové pohárky, by tě moc nezaujalo :)

Ale i Estrella Galicia se občas objeví v Lidlu během Pyrenejského týdne, kdybys měl jó chuť. Je to jedna z nejlepších voleb mezi španělskými průmyslovými pivy. Třeba Mahou se raději vyhni obloukem ;)

Když je v létě žízeň a sedíš za volantem, tak i ten Birell někdy bodne :-)

Snad si budu tvou radu pamatovat.

Některé řemeslné pivovary už vaří i nealko piva, a je to samozřejmě úplně jiná liga. Třeba ten na Břevnově, o kterém jsem psal posledně :)

A třeba Maisel vaří hodně slušná nealka, která se občas dají koupit i v dobrých supermarketech.

Maisel u nás máme, ale nealko jsem nehledal, tak nevím. Budu muset prolézt regály :-)

Měl jsem od nich nealko pšenici a IPA, a oboje bylo velmi slušné. Rozhodně mohu s klidným svědomím doporučit :)

Uvidíme, co od nich najdu. IPA (s alkoholem) u nás je určitě a myslím, že i to nealko bych asi našel. Vozíme Maisel do kasína v Železné Rudě a Němci tam v podstatě jiné pivo nepijí.

Jejich alko IPA mě nenadchla, ale pšenice mají dobré :) No, a je to německé pivo, tak asi proto.

Thank you friend.

Closing the circle of history and how this beer complements the Galician gastronomy after a stroll through one of its main cities.
