500ml bottle @Luppolo Station (Rome). Dorata, abbastanza limpida, schiuma bianca media. Al naso note citriche, fruttate, leggermente terrose, leggera resina. In bocca è morbida, equilibrata, con amaro finale contenuto. Corpo leggero, carbonazione media. Ottima.

[50cl bottle from the Windsor Farm Shop.] A bright straw coloured pour with a tight white head; cereal grain aroma; sweet grainy taste with a hint of honey; and a grassy bitterness. A pleasant summer beer.
