The Mastino court was one of the bravest and extreme supporters of the Ghibellines (supporters of the imperial authority). There were a strong friendship and a mutual respect between the Scaligeri family and the emperor’s court. Monaco of Bavaria was already then the most important imperial city: the ancient armies who reached Italy in order to oppose the Guelphs (Papacy’s authority supporters) departed from here. This amber beer with a high malt character and excellent for welding the strongest friendship pacts is dedicated to this splendid city.

Monaco (AMBER LAGER) is an amber-red coloured beer with fruity and slightly toasted aromas. The mouthfeel is a Monaco malt taste complemented with a distinct hint of caramel and with a pleasantly dry and very delicate aftertaste. A fresh and pretty drinkable beer..

Etwas muffiger Antrunk von dunklem Malz. Geringe Bitterkeit, langweilig. Die Bitterkeit sinkt zum Ende schnell ab, nur das Malz erlebt zum Ende seinen Höhepunkt und steigt an. Okay. 10/7/8/6/9/6

0,33 bottle in Kosovo. Pours semi clear amber-caramel color, medium off white foamy head. Nose: caramel dominates the nose but not an unpleasant blast, dates, dry apricots. Mouth: high carbonation, roasted, peppery after taste. 23/03/2017 again...on tap at So Good. It is a superb amber lager, really. Caramel is silky, charming and balanced. A bit rustic, bread with a prominet and balanced grassy overall. Fantastic!

Draught at Birrivico, Como
Dark amber color, small head. Very light caramel aroma, light caramel flavor, light sweetness, very light nutty touch.
Not bad, but simplistic.
