The XXXI Camariñas Lace Exhibition will be the framework for the official presentation to the public of the 'Serpent' beer, a project by César de León, a native of Dor (A Ponte do Porto) and raised in Xaviña, which, as its name indicates, has an indisputable link with Camariñas and its history.
“The project was born in 2000 but, due to financial issues, I was unable to move forward with it until 2021, the year in which we began setting up the brewery in a warehouse in the Carballo industrial estate, to begin manufacturing in November,” says César de León.
He explains that at the moment there are three types of 'Serpent' beers: "a lager, the typical beer that everyone drinks; a pale lager, very similar to lager but the malts change; and a Franciscan, which is an IPA with quite a few floral notes and a hop flavor". He also adds that "we want to release a toasted one and a gluten-free one soon".
The presentation of these beers in the Mostra pavilion will be on Thursday, April 14 at 6:30 p.m. in the cafeteria area, which will also be in charge of César de León himself and where any of the three 'Serpent' can be tasted throughout the event.
His idea for the future is to “move the brewery to Camariñas”. What will not change is the essence of the project since “my goal is not to do large-scale distribution, my beer is designed to be a gourmet product, I don't want to sell volume, I want to sell quality”.
Today anyone can find 'Serpent' beer in: Camariñas, at the O Bico restaurant, at the Camariñas Yacht Club, at the Marina, at the Ariño bar, at the O Rojo restaurant; in Vimianzo, in Carballo, at the Finisterre lighthouse or at the Carnota lighthouse.
