2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 LordCorkscrew (1774) - Ronco Scrivia (GE), - SEP 28, 2009Quando l’ho stappata (nonostante non sia tanto in forma oggi..ma avevo voglia, come si faceva a rifiutare una bella birra dopo pranzo?) mi sono un poco pentito: l’ho versata e ho sentito odore di alcool, pungente, ho pensato: "eccola è quel che mi aspettavo, una botta di alcool mascherata da birra raffinata tipo HY etc" poi sono andato a sciacquare la bottiglia e mentre andavo annusavo il collo; hmm che buon aroma, il fondo di lievito c’è, mi consolo. Torno al bicchiere, la schiuma è leggermente calata ma mostra comunque persistenza: annuso, di nuovo molto alcool però ci sento qualcosa sotto, pesca, albicocca..assaggiamo valà. L’assaggio è purtroppo deludente, grande dolcezza e sentore metallico rubano alla birra quello che potrebbe sprigionare in bocca; inoltre la frizzantezza è abbastanza pesante e si combina con l’alcool per creare un certo senso di scarsa confortevolezza. Brigante chi ha permesso che accadesse questo scempio, peccato perché poteva avere qualche qualità.

Blonde claire, forte pétillance, mousse crémeuse et persistante. Principalement maltée avec une légère amertume, un peu métallique, présence de fruits, un rien épicée, mais il est dommage que l’alcool soit si présent.
