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.

rulas3 (18) - , SPAIN - APR 27, 2012
Apariencia: color anaranjado cobrizo, turbio, traslúcido, con mucho carbónico aparente, corona color hueso muy claro, casi blanco, abundante y constante. Aroma: intensidad media alta, muy floral, ligeros cítricos, destacan las frutas blancas, como la uva. Sabor: es un poco amarga, cuerpo medio, el primer momento en boca es más bien maltoso, caramelo, etc. Pero en seguida da paso a los cítricos, sobre todo pomelo y flores. Nada de pino o resina. Alcohol muy bien integrado. El carbónico se nota, es persistente, pero no exagerado. Es una pale ale muy lupulizada. Por esto y por el aspecto es casi una IPA. Muy bien hecha, una gran cerveza, equilibrada.

greenclansman (231) - Nicosia, CYPRUS - APR 9, 2012
Very interesting pale ale from Italy. Amazing orange amber color and great aromas. Taste a bit mild and its better to drink not so cold. Nice crisp taste with a smooth bitter aftertaste.

100ml sample from tap at Bir&Fud. Spotty lacing to the glass from a filmy layer. Clear amber coloured body. Resin-like hops to the nose with hints of caramel malts. Malty sweetness in flavour balanced by fresh and dried fruity hops. Dry bitter ending with a malty twist. Likable (Roma, 30.03.2012).
