3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20Bottle at Ma Che, Trastevere, Roma thanks to a certain brewer - 02/10/12.
Hazy amber with a big slightly off white head.
Caramel malts dominate the nose, hops, and a little raspberry.
Taste follows nose, malt forward, caramel, hops and a little background fruit.
Medium bodied with fine carbonation leading to a smooth finish, absolutely spot on in terms of the palate one of the best finishes from a bottle I’ve ever had.

2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Non mi è piaciuta, mi dicono che alla spina sia meglio, io l’ho trovata anonima e con una piccola infezione.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours deep copper/amber as the style would suggest. Big white head recedes to a small one quickly but then hangs around for most of the beer. Nose is caramel, pine, wood, hay and leather. Taste is somewhat bland for most of the drink and only bitters out awkwardly in the finish. Mouthfeel is smooth, yet crisp. Medium to heavy body with a long aftertaste.
