24 Barrel Aged is the result of a long period of ageing in barrels. This process requires a careful assessment of the beer, which must undergo special standards of alcohol content and bitterness in order to balance the activities of the different microorganisms present in the wooden barrels and which over such a long time can offer a considerable contribution. The end product is therefore the result of a study to identify the major physical chemical parameters which allow the indigenous flora of the barrels to contribute in the most appropriate way possible to the goodness and character of the beer itself. ///
- White foam, copious and with beautiful compactness and discreet persistence.
- Beautiful golden orange colour, orange reflections.
- Fresh acetic and lactic notes, scents of yellow apple and tropical fruit are combined with warm woody, slightly earthy and cellar notes. An intriguing and complex bouquet, revealing a touch of vanilla and red berries (cassis and strawberries) in its refined intensity. Warm ethyl notes with the passing of time, crowned by fruit fragrances.
- The body is full, sustained, and softened by a lively sparkle.
- On the palate, the ageing in barriques plays lead role, offering toasted, woody, vinous and vanilla notes, immediately after red fruit, a touch of citrus and again tropical fruit. A good lactic and acetic freshness, the bitterness is moderate but present.
- To the after smell it releases woody and humid notes of earth, and ends with a wonderful dryness that satisfies the palate and warmly invites a second sip. The aftertaste is long, warming, slightly astringent and refined.

Aroma of red fruits, lemon, vinegar, chocolate, caramel, vanilla, almonds. . Intensive and pleasant. Taste of red fruits, caramel, spices, some lemon hints. Little sour. Expected to be more tart. Strange one. Aroma of wild/sour one but taste rather like Barley wine.
