ibosim summer ale

Ibosim is born out of the vision of three friends who decided to join forces sharing their enthusiasm to create a beer of very high quality made out of natural ingredients.

Their love for artisan beer and Ibiza fuse together in this project, giving birth to Ibosim Summer Ale, a genuine beer. Ibosim was the name that the Carthagans gave our island and it means ‘city of the god Bes’. Bes is considered the god of good humor, diversity and joy, amongst many other skills, and the Ibosim beer is an authentic hommage to him and the unique character of this island. Let’s clink our glasses and drink on his health!

This beer of very high fermentation is an interpretation of the classic summer Ale, traditionally from England, and was especially elaborated to refresh us in the ibiçcencan summer heat. With a medium grade of alcohol, a light bitter taste with a full aroma. Ibosim is elaborated from two types of malt (pale and cara munich), a slight touch of oat, three types of hop (simcoe, columbus and citra) and highly fermented yeast. This combination of elements, precisely balanced, gives birth to a beer of golden colour with a touch of copper and a creamy white spume.

Aroma: The smell releases citric notes and mature fruits like mango or peach giving the beer a tropical touch.

Taste: Once in the mouth it enters with a slight bitter but fresh note and the very subtle caramelized taste of malt appears. Those initial sensations give place to citric and spicy notes, maintaining an exotic character. The final taste is of a light bitterness but very refreshing. Altogether a beer you can not miss and once you’ve tried it you won’t stop, as we did when we tried it first. 10 of 10 points from the dubious!
