COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Si presenta ambrata dai riflessi ramati, ed è una birra di importanza storica, in quanto rivisita una ricetta risalente al 1600, tempo in cui in molte zone d’Europa ancora si usava aromatizzare le birre con il “gruyt”, una miscela di piante e spezie, in seguito sostituita definitivamente dal luppolo.
Nella Febbre Alta, oltre a una piccola percentuale di luppolo, intervengono 16 differenti piante nella struttura aromatica.
Ne deriva una birra intensa sotto tutti i punti di vista, dal carattere forte e dai sentori erbacei e balsamici.

Dissetante e remunerativa, da abbinare con formaggi erborinati o salumi


Amber color with copper shades, it's a beer with historical importance, because it reviews a recipe from the 1600, when in many places around Europe it was common to give flavor to the beer with "gruyt", a mixture of herbs and spices, eventually replaced by hops.
In Febbre Alta, besides a small percentage of hop, there are 16 different aromatic herbs.
The resulting beer is deep under every point of view, with strong character and herbal & balsamic touch.

Refreshing and rewarding, to be paired to blue cheese or Italian cured meat.

A hazy red-golden beer with a lazing off-white head. The aroma has notes of fruits and phenols. The flavor is very sweet with notes of phenol, and fruit, leading to a dry phenolic finish.

Christian (8043) - Odense, DENMARK - AUG 26, 2010
Hazy amber with a lasting off-white head. Perfumed aroma of herbs (bog myrtle), tropical fruits and flowers. Sweet and rather cloying herbal flavour. The herbs and the sweetness makes it pretty hard to drink a full glass

madmitch76 (5176) - , Essex, ENGLAND - JUN 13, 2010
4th June 2010 - Bottle opened at Brasserie 4:20. Cloudy red amber beer. Short lived suddy off white head. Light dry palate. Crisp light fruit and a little bubblegum and pepper. Herbel tea and cardamon and lavender notes (well spotted Rob!). A very interesting beer. The Italians are not scared to experiment and their beers are all the more interesting and better for it!
