I think you'll find that Dorada is exclusive to the Canary Islands and Spain. However, there is probably someone somewhere in the UK importing it to cater for discerning connoiseurs such as yourself....
After Dorada, a pint of Carling back home just doesn't cut it. Although it could just be the sun and the weather that make it go down better? _________________ My Paranoia-Management Therapy is going great! Now they're only watching me half the time.... |

You could come over with empty suitcases and then fill up with dorada  _________________ .

A mate of mine who lives in Callao went back for a few weeks last year and drinks nothing but Dorada, he went into a bar in the middle of London and there was Dorada Especial in the cooler.
Needless to say he spent the who time of his holiday in there, and he always orders two at a time for some strange reason so spent his whole time in the pub asking for "dos" much to the amusement of the staff. _________________ Oh well, here goes another day in paradise! |

How about answering my question? Which did you prefer, draught, normal bottled or special bottled? _________________ .

When I was last in Tenerife, I only tasted the bottled varieties, from one of the local supermarkets. When at the bars, I usually got "caned" on the Rum!!....
Margaret, it would be interesting to hear if it's possible to source the product from ASDA...

I'v not seen it in ASDA I must say. Certainly they d0 ESTELLA etc.
They do do a fairly wide range of world beers, TESCO probably beat them.
Im with it though, if dorada is available its great, however its such a nice beer and so close to my heart that Im almost happier if it doesnt branch out to worldwide stores.
That said, best of luck, have a google, Im aure even aftera 2/3 pages something would come up
