COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Birra ambrata di alta fermentazione ispirata alle tradizionali India Pale Ale inglesi, molto luppolata nell’aroma e nell’amaro. Al naso si percepiscono sentori agrumati principalmente di pompelmo e sentori speziati, in bocca il malto fa da padrone, segue poi il fruttato ed infine l’amaro che rimane molto persistente. La gasatura medio bassa tipica dello stile ne consente il servizio con la tradizionale pompa inglese.
A brand-new beer from a brand-new, very promising head-brewer. India Pale Ale following the American Pale Ale style with a fruity aroma (grapefruit), with peppery notes (East Kent Goldings), a rich taste of malts (Maris Otter and Crystal), with a very long bitter and citrus finish typical of Cascade hops.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dagan’s place. Thanks troubles. Hazy orange. Aroma of fruity hops and a bit of malt. Sweetish flavor with a bit of slightly honey-ish malt, continues bitter and hoppy with some citric notes. Medium-bodied. Alright.

Capa (1542) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 10, 2012
Very delicate in flavor and aroma. Citrus, light grapefruit, sweet toasted caramel malt. Mildly earthy, too. Medium body with carbonation that fools you, at first, into thinking htere is a crisp hop finish. There isn’t. T’was OK.

Bottle 33 cl @ Karhisma Birroteca (Piedimonte Matese - Caserta, Italy). Orange bright color, white foam and good lacing. When uncapped, it release a VERY disturbing and horrible acetic. I don’t know how bad had the yeasts evolved in a so little time like three months or similar, despite the best-before set on 06-2012. Anyway. After pouring, beer seems totally normalized in glass; fresh citric and fruity aroma, some bread, caramel, honey. I recognize the spiced characterization due to East Kent. I remember the first time when I had this one, and it’s not so different after two years. Flavor is that of a mildly carbonated APA, good malt contribution, orange and grapefruit. Pleasant harsh finish. What could I say? Respectable, leaving out the imperfection above-mentioned, but risk to being boring.
