And in this edition of 2019, “The 1906 family of beers maintains its position in the best beers in the world”, by obtaining two gold and one silver medal, “in the World Beer Challenge. Thus, it does not only validate its previous editions positions, but it scales positions in this ranking of British beers of international prestige that annually analyzes and scores hundreds of references. ”
But there is more …

This distinction has highlighted 1906 Red Vintage by” their unique character, with subtle notes of caramel and coffee that lead to floral aromas reminiscent of hops. “
In the case of 1906 Reserva Especial, its unique flavour of intense bitterness and balance has been awarded having a white foam of high persistence that remains in the glass throughout the consumption. Apart from these two, the dark lager 1906 Black Coupage beer, which has recently been added to the range, has won a silver medal with 94 points out of one hundred. “
