rossa schiuma media non molto persistente note fruttat ciliegia leggermente acidule in bocca un po aspra un tocco di ciliegia

Pours a hazy golden brownish color. Aromas of mild cherries, wheat bread, and a touch of hops. Flavor is a nice balance of soft fruit flavor with malts and a crisp dry finish

Golden straw color. You read that right - and this is fresh from the brewery. No head. No lacing. Still not sure how people are getting red hue from something that is slightly darker than a Bud Light. Oh well. Smells of cherries with pits. Hence the almond like aroma in there. Sweet and sour on the tongue. A definite bitterness from the pits that I presume are in there. It’s too nutty not to have them. Very good everyday beer.

300ml bottle! The beer in glass is reddish-brown, which brings relatively cloudy. The smell is typical of a fruit beer. Very cherry-like and easily fermented. The beer starts very cherry sour, fermented taste of Witbier and cherries. The finish is also slightly sourish. For 7.0% alcohol extremely mild. Really not bad!!!
