Birra color oro, di puro malto d’orzo, di cui una parte torbato.
Viene maturata per trentasei mesi in botti di rovere dopo aver fatto una prima fermentazione in acciaio con lieviti selezionati.
Spiccata intensità olfattiva, grande complessità e moderata acidità.
Al naso sono nette le note di torba, sotto le quali all’assaggio si intuiscono aromi fruttati.
Birra complessa, lunga, dedicata agli amanti dei whisky torbati, ma di buon equilibrio.

Bottle shred at Bruce’s in London during Jack’s farewell tasting. Thanks to Colin for this whale. Vintage 2010. Pours hazy, pale gold with a faint, filmy white head. Nose holds some leathery citrus, hints of metal and sour lemon. Light sweet flavor, subtly herbal, lots of leathery and slightly jammy citrus, moderate tang. Light bodied with fine, tingly carbonation. Mild tang in the finish, soft warmth, some tangy lemon, leather, light bitter citrus rind. So so.

2010 bottle. Nose of grapefruit, vinegar, lemon, lactic notes. Pastel yellow-orange color with low bubbles. Flavor is wine, honey, sweet orange, light sourness. Nice, light carbonation in there. Very well balanced, no peat at all, thank God. Drinkable as hell. Not a huge, over-powering sour, but I guess I might prefer it that way.

29/05/2013 Bir&Fud Bottega (330ml bottle). Dorata, spenta, lievemente torbida, schiuma quasi assente. Al naso sentori di stalla, cantina, sigaro, vino rosso. In bocca è delicata, l’acidità è volutamente contenuta e il torbato emerge senza alcuna aggressività permanendo a lungo nel retrogusto, sul finale una leggera nota acetica. Corpo medio-leggero, carbonazione soft. L’equilibrio tra acido e torbato ha del miracoloso, una birra originale e ben fatta.

Hazy blond color. The aroma is very nice, getting close to a real Lambic, sour, with cobwebs, and a light lemony touch. The mouthfeel is softer than expected; there is a lemony and tart character, some more malt than I would have in a Lambic, nice acidic edge, some spiceness from the yeast. No peat.
Very interesting.

Bottle @ Miss January / AA Meeting Afterparty Tasting, March 2012. Pours clear golden with a white bubbly head. Nose is funk, barnyard and oak. Flavor adds a bit of red wine from the barrel. Ends dry and mildly sour.
