Go Back Brutal [ bru ‘tal ] adj mf Awesome adj In Spanish, ‘brutal’ is a good thing. A very good thing. So good, in fact, there’s even a wine bar in Barcelona called ‘Bar Brutal’.
Specialising in vins libres (300 varieties and counting), the upbeat bodega has become one of the city’s hottest joints, famed for its rowdy, energetic atmosphere and its tapas-style menu of small sharing dishes, overseen by Californian Kaya Jacobs – formerly of Albert Adriá’s ‘Tickets’ and ’41 Degrees’ – and designed to complement the bar’s avant-garde wine list. Brutal indeed.
