A top fermentation, double-malt amber beer flavoured with Italian pumpkin. This beer is suitable for accompanying risotto with vegetables, boiled meats, hors d’hœuvres and chestnuts. Excellent for sipping while sitting in an armchair in front of a log fire.

Bottled, 0.33l. Cloudy orange amber color with small frothy tan-like head, lively carbonation and some yeast residue. Aroma of malt, grassy hops and yeast with reasonable alcoholic note. Sweet and rich malty start followed with relatively fruity sourness. Mouthfeel is quite astringent, finish tastes of pumpkins, while aftertaste is more alcoholic than bitter. Medium to full body, thick texture and lively carbonation in palate. Interesting combination, not fantastic, but still far beyond average...

bottle, pours light gold with a medium off white head that sticks around. Aroma is pumpkin and spice. Flavor is all sweet candied sugar and pumpkin, it’s really nice with a slightly cinnamon finish. I like it.

Bottle: Poured a cloudy copper orange with light white head. The aroma is full of spice. Taste follows with spice and pumpkin veggie. A nice try at a hard to be consistent seasonal.

ambrata leggermente fruttata un poco di etilico diacetile un po maltata in bocca si avverte una leggera sensazione dolciastra forse la zucca anche se non è in evidenza leggere sentori vegetali un poco etilica lieviti

Pumpkin beer
Cloudy copper color. Light apricot aroma. Medium body, grassy malt flavor (light); light traces of vegetables and diacetyl let me think of some fermentation problem. The aroma is also a bit yeasty.
