Technical Data Sheet
Description
Cyclic Xarel·lo is a mixed-fermentation craft beer that surprises with its complexity and freshness. Brewed with an acidic base and macerated for 2 months with second-use Xarel·lo grape skins, an emblematic variety from Penedès, this fermented gem then rests for 13 months in barrels, which enhances its vinous character and organoleptic richness. An essential choice for lovers of sour beers with the soul of natural wine.
