    Very good microbrew. Best I've had in Spain. Super friendly staff, and great food!

    Excellent selection of beer. I love their pale ales, and the experimental part of the menu is mostly on the good side. The nachos are to die for, and the staff is friendly and speak English very well. Out of all the places in Sant Cugat I'll miss this one the most!

    This place is an example of the definition of a craft beer brewpub! I didn't have much time to try out all beers, but I tried their Kölsh and Weizen because those are two beer types that can be used to measure the skills of the brewers. Unlike extremely hopped Pale Ales, Kölsh and Weizen has to maintain that balance while adding the craftsmanship and experimental features to those. In my opinion, they have nailed it! Therefore, on my way back, I bought the only remaining bottle in their fridge, which is an Irish style dry stout by the way (I still couldn't try that) Kölsch Sour, sweet start. Mild floral bitterness to just balance the tastes. At first, it felt warming like bock beer (more ABV than usual kölsh). Very fruity and spice of lemon with a hint of grass character which is not overpowering. Sweeter dense body. Ale yeast characters a bit prominent despite lagering. But very refreshing. Feels a little bit like a NEIPA in a way in aromas, but has a sweet dense body like a helles larger. There wasn't any bready notes. Lemon and honey like sweetness from malts, but fresh cut grass like earthy, bitter, refreshing non cloying finish. Weissbier Similar yeast characters to the kölsch at the start. Bit flowery. A bit of Coconut Easters but No banana at all. Sweet: Lemon honey characters. Less viscosity but it has the body like any other weissbier. A hint of clove from yeasts, but the sweet lemony, sour front is prominent. When remains in the glass for a while the aromas of hops start to appear. Then it becomes very similar to Schneider hopfenweisse. Very similar! Then you can experience a very clear, prominent aroma of Betal leaves!! Spice. (Makes you say "Wow"). Betal leaves have a particular spiciness that releases stress. I also bought a small tapas platter (pork ribs). That was so tender and tasty, (you can understand that by looking at the photo I'm posting). That was superb! The staff was truly nice, which is something that I commonly noted with people in Catalonia during the past few days. They were also very helpful when choosing things from the menu and were very quick to deliver food to the table as well. Update: (after trying the stout I bought on the way back): Farri's Stout: The aromas of Dark chocolate, cramalised sugar and coffee are very strong and straight forward. (Apparently, they haven't added anything like coffee or Coco beans, technically complying to reinheitsgebot, but this seriously have those aromas at a very prominent levels compared to many craft stouts I've tried in the UK). Sweet orange like tastes at the start that gets immediately intercepted by an earthy, zesty, refreshing bitterness. This isn't a dry stout though. It has a sweet body like port wine and the refreshing bitterness of dark malts (charred bread crust) and hops hover over the sweetness. Therefore, every sip feels like a big swing between the two extremes, maintaining the drinkability and the refreshing nature (non cloying). The finish is sweet, but mostly clean (Leaves just the bready notes but nothing else). A superb craft stout!

    Superb cask craft ales and yummy tapas! We had a great night here. Thoroughly recommend.

    Used to be our favorite place for yummy craft beer in StQ. But the last two times at La Fem we got warm and flat beers. Given that it's craft beer and priced at a premium, the least we can ask for is cold and fizzy beers. Back to Estrella on the square.

    Nothing to envy to the brew's you would find in the US! You probably have notice, but in Spain there is no good beer culture. Five years ago, I lived in SB, California. There I learned what good beer tasted like. I remember the first time I entered the deli shop just outside campus. I remember the lingering smell of alcohol, the panels above the cashier with all the college-party brevage you could think of .. But nothing like the sight of hundreds upon hundreds of different beer filling the shelf... .. And they where all Local from micro-breweries not 300 miles away! La Fem has brought me back to all those tastes and memories. Week after week, they surprise you with new flavors and their staff allways have a minute to instruct you on what you are drinking. I highly recommend you coming with a good friend, plant of time, a fat wallet and an open mind to dive into the universe of delicious beer.

    Small pub with very good beers brewed by the owners which are very friendly and willing to explain all the different types of beers. Small variety of tapas but more than enough to start your night out. I will definetely come back on my next trip :)

    Great place to organize a small cocktail style party but with crafted beer :) I celebrated my birthday with 20+ friends in the nice room they have below, next to the brewery room. The food was excellent, we had a small tap for beer for us, music and lots of fun.

    Pretty nice artisan beer. Lots of choices and they do have some food too. Terrace it's usually crowded though.

    Good place to try craft beers, which makes the experience a kind of nice adventure, you never know if the next beer is going to be more or less ok

    Great craft beer, quick beer rotation. Once you've got into it, there's no turning back - every once in a while you will come back!

  • 4/5 Philipp T. 2 years ago on Google
    Beer is awesome, though it could contain more carbon dioxide. But it’s really expensive €€€

    Nice beers and friendly atmosphere! Prices are ok for being in the center. Also, the owner makes you taste the beers when some new one arrives, and gives you complimentary popcorn. This is a god brewery!
