Tap at Open Baladin, Roma, 10/02/13. Hazed dark amber with a decent frothy off white head that retains well. Nose is pale malts, spice, cinnamon, caramel. Taste comprises pale malts, toffee, spice, caramel, cinnamon, light fruit. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, hint of spice in the finish. A decent enough spiced bitter.

Tap. Kinda woodsy to my palate, lighter copper color, spiciness, definitely not overdone in terms of the flavoring, but not catching as much hops as I would’ve liked. Didn’t take excellent notes on this one, but was an interesting enough brew as a one time thing.

olfatto di cannella e malto ,gusto delicato di cannella ma ben equilibrata con amaro finale ,bevuta a pompa

ambrata bitter alla cannella bevuta a pompa,una buona birra con sentori maltati , retrogusto leggermente amaro e beverina,

From tap at Bir and Fud. Pours hazy orange with a fully diminished white head. Cinnamon aroma, light acidic. Flavour is dry cinnamon flavoured. Plain and simply.

UPDATED: JAN 18, 2010 schiuma quasi assenter gasatura lieve note nette di cannella luppolo leggero medicinale in bocca la cannella prevale ma poi il luppolo non è dameno interessante e molto beverina nuovo assaggio meno cannella note di zenzero

Hand pump. Perfect ale appearance, very fruity, malty and obvious cinnamon, but far more balanced and less intrusive than I remember it was last year version. In mouth first perceive cinnamon, but fruitiness, maltiness and a dry bitter end mingle perfectly. Very nice retronasal hoppiness. Really a dangerous beer.

Spicy. Smooth, low carb, warm taste, well bitter, partially malt. Some sweetness, delicate spices. Long end. Good, not extreme.

Draught at the brewpub
Hazy amber color; thick creamy head. Spicy aroma, of cloves above all. Smooth taste, low carbonation (hand pumped, I don’t know if it can be considered cask conditioned), warm, well bitter, partially malty, some sweetness, delicate spices. Good, not extreme. Long final.

Pale orange colour, cloudy, with a thin, persistent and very creamy head. Spicy and hoppy aroma with lavender (?) Hints. The flavour is smooth, creamy, and spicy, with a well balanced bitterness. Nice hoppy aftertaste. Delicious!
