3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20Bottle. Pours a hazy dark orange body with a small white head. Nose is cascade-ish fruity hop tones: grapefruit, melon, hints of apricot. Some herbal cat pee tones in the back. Taste is mellow fruity tones of peaches, melon and pine, with hints of grass. Nice. Smooth body, medium carbonation. A solid IPA, and probably one of the best of the genre from Italy I’ve had this far.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle. Hazy orange colour with thin white head and a floaty bits. Some funky fruity earthiness to the aroma as well as vegetables, dried pineapple, malt, candy and a little wheat too. Nice and full mouthfeel, foamy if you let it. Pineapple in the flavour too, pretty sweet and not a massive amount of bitterness but the grapefruit and tonic comes through at the end. Altogether pretty damn tasty.

From a 330ml bottle on 22/5/2013. Pours a cloudy dark golden witha smallish head. Has a very pleasant, light aroma featuring honey, floral and fruity notes. In the mouth, you get pronounced honey flavours, and lots of sweet citrus and stone fruit (orange, lemon, apricot and peach. The hops deliver a satisfying, lingeringThis is r bitter finish, with just a dash of grapefruit presenting. The body is medium to full and the carbonation lively, but not off putting. This is really nice stuff. Definitely not a typical IPA, but really rewarding. If you think Peroni is all that the Italians have to offer, try this.

Ambrata con schiuma piuttosto persistente.
Luppolata il giusto, un pò poco amara per essere un’IPA.
Comunque buona!
