3 monts with my Paella

Pin It Now!
I decided to cook a Paella last night. The comment from my wife was it was the best Paella she has ever had? Not bad, I thought I had made better and I certainly have put more effort into others before. For one thing I had no Spanish rice left so Basmati had to do. I did not use chicken this time, just a pack of frozen seafood mix from Tesco. Anyway it turned out real nice and I think the reason is that I used plenty of Spanish smoked Pimiento Paprika which I have had for a while and put it in the odd Chilli but this was a much better use for it.

Anyway I opened a bottle of 3 monts which is the last of the beers I got last week. It comes in a 750ml corked bottle.

• sight - Very light in colour, clear crisp and immensly foamy.
  
• smell - Something sweet and definate alcohol on the nose.
  
• taste - A little sweet and juicy, some Cider qualities. Champaign feel. Alcohol lingers.
  
• sweet - 2/5
  
• bitter - 1/5

This was a very interesting beer. At first I was not too sure of it as it is not a style I am familiar with and not something I could see myself drinking but I warmed to it, or perhaps the alcohol made me warm to it. I certainly grew to like it. I do not think I would go out of my way to have it again as I prefer different stlyes to this but as something to have every now and again I certainly would enjoy it.
