Clean amber-orange; small white head, fast gone. Fruity nose, whiff of sherry. Dry, not-quite moulded grain in the background. Light, but present short sharp fruit flavour, definitely not recognisable; a bit like citric-like berries or red/whitecurrant. Sharpish, but agreable titillating acidic. Quite surprising beer; fruity but unrecognisable (then, I might have Morus Nigra in my garden, Morus Alba I’ve even never seen in life!). Light, but pleasing.

Bottle 375ml.

Clear medium yellow orange colour with a large, frothy to creamy, good lacing, fully lasting, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, caramel, fruity - berry, nectar. Flavour is moderate to heavy sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average to long duration, nectar sweet, fruity - berries, fresh, sweet fruit - berry. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20110610]

Unclear golden with a fading white head. Strange acidic fruity aroma, woody, never eat mulberries so I can’t detect ’em. A bit sharp and woody. Balanced nevertheless, as any Bi-Du beer.

UPDATED: NOV 6, 2007 color arancio buona schiuma piuttosto persistente sentori di lupplo e fiori in bocca leggera tendente all’amaro note di fiori lievemente ossidata forse riassaggiata in bottiglia esalta più la frutta che in effetti è aggiunta in maggiori quantità
