The tale of EL GRILLO – A beer like nothing else

El Grillo is fresh and balanced with citrus, fruit and floral notes combined with an earthy, umami flavour that creates a rich and full tasting experience. Its texture is smooth and velvety pleasant with a subtle creamy body. It is a beer designed to enhance aroma and tasting notes, not only in the beer itself, but also when it is enjoyed together with a wide variety of food.

The secret lies in the name

El Grillo means ‘the cricket’. And that is exactly what makes this pale ale truly special. Throughout the brewing process crickets are added in both roasted and finely ground form. This allows for an incredibly smooth texture and umami flavour, while hibiscus flower adds freshness. The cricket flour acts to enhance other tasting notes, as we know it from the world of gastronomy.

Designed by nature

El Grillo is designed by nature – Chef Lui applies his knowledge of entomophagy, botany and gastronomy to create the unique combination of flavour and molecular reactions that is El Grillo. The powerful combination of Lui’s knowledge and creativity with the skillful scandinavian fermentation techniques of Brew 42, bears us the fruit, El Grillo.
