A true all malt beer inspired by the tradition of Strong Ale. Its appearance is characterized by an intense yellow colour, naturally cloudy, with honey-coloured tones. The head is white and persistent. The aroma of this beer is characterized by fresh herbaceous notes of aroma hops. The use of special malts in this recipe provides sweet notes of malt and honey. The flavour confirms intense notes of barley malt and caramel, balanced by the bitterness of the hops, with hints of ripe fruit due to the high-fermentation yeast used. The finish is persistent and complex.

swing top bottle 750ml. -from Area 12 Torino as I Cavalieri Doppio Malto Bionda. Cloudy yellow coloured, medium sized creamy white head, pleasant fruity hoppy nose. Moderate malty, fruity hoppy, slight citrusy and mild alcoholic with bitterish finish. Surprisingly good indeed.

Fles meegebracht van vakantie om thuis te proeven. Lekkere hoppige geur. In de licht bittere smaak komen de kruiden goed tot hun recht.

Bottle shared by Inoven, thanks! Clear golden color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste malts, lightly sweet, yeast, lightly dark fruits, lightly hops, a distant hint of leaves and tea. Decent body and soft carbonation.

So, the fourth cotta we’ve tried, this time without any "strange" ingredients. Thanks Ogi! Poured a nice full misty yellow body with a small white head that went away relatively fast. Fresh fruity, lemony aroma that suggests aroma hops - yay, lightl maltiness, quite lovely! Taste... again, lemony on a solid backbone, mild vitamins, fresh, creamy, no alcohol! Just slightly and annoyingly so in away too little bitterness, as it’s otherwise a very good beer. Good job!

Thanks to ThirstyBird for sharing! The nose is neutral-hoppy. The beer starts sweetish-awful. Sweetish cardboard, slightly bitter. The aftertaste is just sweet, alcoholic, pushing bitter.

Gefunden habe ich die schöne 1l-Reliefflasche mit Plopp-Verschluss beim Großhändler Metro anno 2014. Das Bier hat eine schöne Textur und liegt angenehm am Gaumen. Allerdings hat es eine gemüsige Note, die vielleicht von den Linsen im Sud kommen kann. Sonst wirkt es wie ein eigenwilliges belgisches Blonde, das ein bisschen zu viel Zucker bekommen hat.
