An independent brewery in Cornellà del Terri
SOMA Beer is based in Cornellà del Terri, in the province of Girona. On Untappd the brewery is listed as a microbrewery from Girona, Catalunya, described as 'Hop forward beers from Girona'. According to Birrapedia, the brewery was founded by Josep Ramon Prats García.
Their own website gives 2016 as the starting point: that was when they brewed their first IPA. Since then, by their own account, their focus has been clear: make beers of the highest possible quality and deliver a product that surprises. They describe themselves as driven by the eternal search for the perfect beer.
Extra hoppy beers in limited batches
SOMA focuses on extra hoppy styles, such as NEIPAs and IPA substyles in general. They brew limited editions of each beer. This lets them experiment with different recipes and hop varieties every week and see first-hand how the various factors in the brewing process interact. They themselves talk about juices that obsessed them.
On Untappd there are hundreds of different beers from the brewery, which fits that weekly approach. Brewhunter describes Fractal, a 7.0% hazy IPA, with juice of citrus, soft peach and a hint of pine resin in a silky-smooth, hazy body. A profile like that fits the direction SOMA names itself.
SOMA Beer at Hoptimaal
At Hoptimaal we have had 32 beers from SOMA Beer so far, all of them IPAs in 44 cl. The strength ranges from 6 to 12%, so from easy-drinking to strong. On Untappd, Render, Symmetry, Threshold, Froth, Nectar and Infrared, among others, are highly rated. What exactly is in stock varies, because SOMA brews in limited editions.
Drink SOMA as fresh as possible and serve it cool, not ice cold, so the hops come through properly. For Fractal, Brewhunter gives a serving temperature of 8 to 10 °C, a useful starting point for hazy IPAs. The stronger IPAs in the range you drink more slowly, in smaller sips and preferably shared.
