About the beer

Dia de Perros is Oitava Colina's foray into the territory of the West Coast IPA — the style that defined American craft beer and remains a benchmark for clarity, bitterness, and dryness. Produced in Lisbon in collaboration with Joint Brewing, using hops of Portuguese origin but American varieties, it is a beer that unites the best of both worlds.

With 6% ABV and 55 IBU, it presents itself as golden and clean in the glass, with a white head of medium persistence. The aroma brings notes of pine and herbs, with a subtle citrus background. On the palate, the body is medium, the bitterness is firm but well-calibrated, and the finish is dry — exactly what is expected from an honest West Coast.

Food pairing: The dry and bitter profile of Dia de Perros is a classic pairing with fried foods and intense dishes. With fried chicken or tempura, the carbonation cleanses the fat between each bite. With hard-aged cheeses, the bitterness complements the saltiness. It also works well with burgers, grilled sausages, and dishes with aromatic herbs — where the beer's herbal affinity is truly felt.
