Mad Brewing / La Pirata Oldies

Mad Brewing and La Pirata deliver a sophisticated Old Ale enriched by the botanical depth of Ratafía. This mahogany-hued ale opens with a dense aromatic profile of treacle, dark toffee, and oxidative notes of Sherry. The Ratafía addition layers in complex nuances of green walnut, cinnamon, and a subtle herbal bitters-like quality that complements the rich malt base. On the palate, luscious flavors of raisin, fig, and molasses are balanced by a gentle tannic dryness and a warming alcohol presence. The finish is long and vinous, highlighting the synergy between traditional English brewing and Mediterranean liqueur craftsmanship.
