During the early Middle Ages Verona was ruled by Dietrich von Bern, better known as Theodoric of Verona, the King of the Ostrogoths (Teodorico da Verona): Bern was the ancient Teutonic name used for defining the city of Verona.

Now, this name refers to a pure malt beer which follows the typical Bavarian style and is produced with the double-decoction mashing method. Honey and bread crust hints make the drop satisfying and the full malty taste predominates.

Tap @ SOPP 2019. Poured golden in color with a dense white head. Malty aroma, grainy and quite sweet. Flavors were malts, grain, sweetness, hay and hops. Drinks well. Slightly hoppy for a doppelbock, but overall a really nice strong lager.

Bottle, enormous thanks Iznogud & Max! Hazy golden body, white head. Flowery full sweetish malty aroma, mild touches of candied fruit. MIld creamy sweetish flowery taste, some honey, a bit lean, well hidden ABV, ends slightly dry. While itll never be my favorite beer, a very good strong lager in my opinion. Sweetish but not too sweet, very well balanced. Mastino does some really nice lagers!
