Hergestellt mit Kastanien und Spezialmalzen. Aufgrund des leicht süsslichen Kastanienaromas der Tessiner Kastanien eignet sich dieses Bier auch sehr gut als Dessert-Bier.

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a short lived head. Aroma is grassy hops, light malt note. Sweet nutty flavoured, caramelish malt and distinct bitterness. Goes into a dry and lasting bitter finish with a hint of chestnuts.

[33cl bottle] Clear, pale golden colour with a short frothy white head. Moderately sweet nutty and almost almond-like malty nose with a slightly smoky touch. Light-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied, smooth carbonation. Malt-accented nutty taste with a medium-dry, slightly smoky finish. Not a real highlight but at least interesting and likeable [29.X.08].

This beer is a light golden color with a thin and fizzy white head that disappears rather fast. Minimal coating of lacing on the glass. The aroma is musty hops and some nuts. Light-bodied and a little skunky, with hoppy and nutty flavors. The finish is sweet malt with a mildly bitter aftertaste. Aside from the Heineken-ish aspects this beer is alright.

The aroma is sweet and malty with a nutty background. The color is yellow and it has a beutiful head. The flavor is malty with notes of straws and nuts. It ends on a rather dry note. A fine beer but nothing special - I couldn't tell the chestnuts - just hint of a nuttyness.
