33cl bottle. Pours a cloudy ruby-brown colour with a large cremy light-brown head. Good lacing and mostly lasting foam. Aroma is quite complex: lots of malt with bread, cookies, cereals. toasted malt and nuts, some wood and alcohol too. Hints of spices. Flavor is very good, also if less complex than his sister Pannepot: bitterness at the beginning with some sweetness and tartness; long finish with little sweetness and a prevailing sensation of acidity and botterness. Medium-full bodied with creamy texture. Fizzy carbonation. Soft alcoholic aftertaste. Great beer, even if less complex than his sisters Pannepot and Pannepot Grand Reserva. Aniway it makes it more refreshing and esier to drink.
