Bevuta a Pasturana; APA molto particolare, cerealosa, con un intenso sapore di malto e il tipico amaro dei luppoli USA. Molto buona, davvero bravi quelli del Rurale, ci farò un salto.

In short: A dry grassy hoppy blonde beer of some kind. Good session beer.
How: Tap at Bir&Fud, Rome Italy
The look: Clear blonde body topped by a small white head leaving good lacing
In long: Nose is light with notes of grassy hops. Taste has crisp cereals, a touch of honey, a touch of caramel, some boiled potatoes, good amount of grassy and leafy hops. Finish has a medium bitterness and is rather dry. I am quite surprise to see it listed as an American Pale Ale. To me with the hopping character and lack of fruit esters I assumed it was drinking some kind of bastard pilsner. Another nice Italian session beer, something they do well, especially when you can drink them fresh on location. Italy is nice, but it can be a traumatizing experience for someone like. I never pay my debts and it always worries me when I have an Italian walking behind me.
