250 ml bottle. Pours with a clear, golden color and a tiny off-white head. Nose is nonspecific sweet with a touch of apple. Taste is very sweet: brown sugar, applejuice, but also some malty flavors. Quit dry and slightly bitter finish.

Bottle fortunately shared at OltremaltO, Ancona. Pours amber brown with a small lasting off-white to beige head and good lacing. Aroma of syrup, malt, overripe fruit, brown sugar and toffee. Heavy sweetness, minimal bitterness and sour. Medium body, sticky texture, soft carbonation.

BOTTLE 25 CL shared. BB APR2016. Clear dark copper/brandy, sediment, small off-white head. Glazed baked apples, touch of cooked corn, light barrel brandy like notes. The taste is slightly cidery, macerated apples, nice sweetness, not sugary at all. The finish has a mild cidery winy astringency. Nice.
