Our up-and-coming brewers do not have a tradition to follow and are completely free to experiment with unusual ingredients, restricted however to the territory of production, Sardinia. This is the case of young Sardinian Nicola Perra, who has used the wort of Cannonau grapes (a famous Sardinian red wine) to develop BB10.

A naturally winy beer with warm and sumptuous aromas of caramel, cocoa, prune, morello cherry and strawberry grapes and a taste which is rich with caramel, chocolate, liquorice, prune and quince as well as sweet dried fruit like figs and sultanas.

Although BB10 is a typical late evening beer, it is also an ideal table beer with the famous piedmontese boiled meat dish, or a tasty pecorino cheese; or even with chocolate desserts or ricotta based cakes. It is best served warmed on cold winter days aromatised with cinnamon and cloves.

At a tasting, thanks, small fizzy bubbly brown head, deep brown color, vinous aroma with metal notes and a hint of cake, flavor of dark fruit and metal, sweet but not too heavy. Nice but not too exciting.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Yoav's place. Thanks kerenmk. Brown, quickly dissipating beige foam. Dark fruits, yeast, alcohol, vinous, sweet, slightly sourish, bitterish note. Messy and not too pleasant.

0,75 bottle at Baccusardus (Villasimius-Sardinia). It pours a very dark brown, almost black color. Ivory/brownish foam with medium retention and lacing. Nose: very complex aroma of torrone, cellar, wine must, berries, cocoa. Mouth: same complexity, talks to a quadruple, flatter, easier, much cocoa and red fruit.

75cl bottle @ Finissons ces pétroles tasting, merci Vincent. Cuivre, col fin beige. Arôme au nez malté, grillé, biscuité avec un rétro fruité noir, certainement le raisin pressé, je note aussi une petite touche de noisette. Palais est malté, grillé, caramel, biscuité, fruits noirs tirant vers la figue et date et prune, en fin de bouche je trouve également un léger ajout de fraise. Le profil de raisin arrive en rétro et contraste avec le côté malté.
