75 cl bottle, 6.5%, 4.90€. Cracked open, stingy nose of balsamic winegar. Yellow color, cloudy, nice creamy white head, persistent. Nose is winegar and hops. Aromas of apricots, candy orange and a load of american hops. Intense taste, pretty bitter and a bit salty and slighlty acidic. Light mouthfeel, very soft, smooth. Some sticky sweetnes in the finish, but overall bitter.

0.75l bottle fro lotto #8356. The abv says 6.5% and the bottle is actually just called Le Rustiche (not sure if this is the same beer as the one I found on Ratebeer). Think it has to be this one, but I'm not 100% sure. Anyhow, this is a cloudy orange one, lots of small beige particles in this one and it has an impressive, heavy lacing and really good looking medium sized bubbly just off-white top that never fades. On the nose this is fresh, sweet and fruity. Peaches and yellow mango with a malty and sweet - almost caramel like background. Some slight yeasty thing also in here. Not bad at all. It's average to soft on the carbonation and light slick to thin oily on the mouthfeel. Really ripe fruits up on the flavor. Old melon zest, brown banana, green apples, some soft alcohol traces and also something that reminds me of gummy bears. I'm not sure this is meant to be an IPA, tastes more of a English Pale Ale, but it's not bad at all. Ends light citrus-sharp with some grapefruit tones. 22.10.2012

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin yellowish head. The aroma has notes of malt, straw, hops, and citrus fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, fruit, and some phenols, leading to a dry phenolic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottle 75 cl. Comes as: "Le Rustiche La Biscara". Pours a hazy pale yellow with a white head. The nose is spicy and yeasty with some citrusy hops. Medium body, sweet fruit and citrusy hops. There’s a vague underlying tartness. The finish has a little grapefruitish bitterness. 100910
