There's actually a lot of good 'craft' beer in Spain now. There was a good brewery in Seville and a bottle shop I think (sorry Barry). To be honest, being there in June one year, the local Cruzcampo tasted fantastic when temperatures were at 40 degrees! Barcolona is probably one of the best craft beer cities in the world right now. I stayed just outside in the nearby town of Mataro last summer and visited the Drunken Monk, a place I first visited in 2011, completely obscure world class Belgium bar with a great bottled and draft selection, including draft Lambic and Gueuze. A few years' ago I was in Mikkeller Barcelona before a Pearl Jam concert and must have racked up a bill of 80EUR and the manager (also a fan) just said "give me 30EUR".  As you can imagine, my needs are met beer wise right now by supermarkets... I have some Eichhorn, Held-Braeu, Sonne and Hummel chilling in my fridge. Like most people on here though, drinking at home is ok, but I miss going to a pub or, with the weather like now, a bier Keller.
