Mastri Birrai Umbri’s unfiltered red ale is made in Italy according to the Cotta 37 recipe using the traditional top-fermentation technique. The use of roasted malts and chicklings results in its characteristic deep, naturally cloudy copper hue. The ale’s captivating aroma is dominated by mineral and caramelized notes. Its body is smooth and its flavour balanced.

27/07 A 0.75 fliptop bottle, as Cotta 28. It poured hazy honey-amber body with medium sized white head. Honey and propolis in aroma, sweet, but fine. Touched with yeast. Flavor was interestingly bitter, herbal and alcoholic, some weaker sweet toffee and caramel malts, medium in body, rough and tingling on palate. Slightly sweet finish though, caramel and citrus are dominating here. A fine beer, feels more than 5.5% like all of these obviously.

As MBU Cotta 28... these are apparently special versions. In any case they are both brewed with grass peas. Which are used as cattle feed and are poisonous if you consume a lot of them over a longer period of time. Great. Still, that’s definitely a first. I think. This poured a murky amber body with a lasting slightly off white head. The aroma was simple but nice, honey, some chalkiness, yeastiness, sweet overall. Simple sweet taste, honey, light bitterness, veeery light herbal noes. Just a weak touch of plastic which might be from the yeastiness. As I noted, tasty, simple, likely overpriced.

Swing top&cap 750ml (COOP Genova, BB 08/2013)
Slightly hazy deep amber color, good creamy off-white head. Aroma is caramelly, a bit malty. Medium-bodied. Sweetish caramelly flavor, also bready with light bitterness in the finish. Not very strong palate. Clean but uninspiring ... Scotch ale?

75cl bottle @ Cafe Buitenlust, Oirschot, shared with Thompson. Slightly hazy light orange-golden color, small to medium sized white head that quickly becomes a small white lacing. Smell and taste malts, only lightly some herbs (almost seems like oregano), slight bitterness. Low to medium carbo and body.

75cl bottle, 4.90€, contains cicerchia (lathyrus sativus legume). Amber color, clear, small white head. Quiet nose. Aroma is moderately roasted with some caramel, citrusy and fruity notes. Something earthy and dusty. Taste curve is soft, with an initial sweetish attitude to a very light bitterness in the finish. Body is light and carbonation is sustained, mouthfeel is thin and dry. Handcraft feel, down to earth.
