One of our brewery's oldest beers and one of the earliest, Italian-made American Pale Ales. In recent years, it has not been produced on a regular basis as priority has been given to hoppier, trendier beers. However, in response to pressure from loyal customers like the people from the Ligera pub (which was named after our beer), we have decided to relaunch this classic, Made in Lambrate beer. A decisive contribution was also made by the petition signed by 101 customers from Hop Pub in Milan requesting the return of one of their favourite brews. We will present the new Ligera, at Hop Pub in Milan, during their party to celebrate International Women's Day.

@ZZT V. Slightly hazy golden orange with a big slightly off-white head. Smells flowers, hops, fresh, malts. Tastes hoppy, flowers, sweetish, fresh, refreshing. Slightly thin bodied and a bit watery though. Nice carbo. Fine beer.

Bottle, Stirchley Wines, Birmingham. Murky amber pour with a fast fading white head. Nose had a little spice, but pretty muted. Some dusty hop sweet malt and citrus in the flavour. Dryish bitter finish. Ok but largely forgettable.

Murky orange, not much head. Yeasty, fruity nose with some hops. Light to medium bodied. Quite American (or DanishI) flavor; fruity hoppy with resin, some grainy notes, yeasty. Interesting but light.

Draft. A hazy amber with a thin off-white head. The aroma is malty and hoppy combined with a herbal note. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and a weird hop profile and some herbs, leading to a dry finish.
