Morning Glory is a well-hopped American pale ale. This APA has an amber color and fruity hints that veer towards mango and peach, also thanks to the American hops used. Morning Glory has a medium body and a clear and persistent foam. It is a balanced beer, with a good balance between sweet and bitter. It is an American pale ale with an exceptional profile, good drinkability and structure.

Bottiglia. Il naso vira verso il luppolo. La finezza olfattiva è elevata, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. La parte liquida La limpidezza è di aspetto opalescente. Bollicine fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza, con carbonazione persistente. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sulla lingua arrivano note di miele, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas, arancia amara, mango, frutto della passione e frutta tropicale.

Pours a slightly opaque, slightly hazy dark golden, with a medium sized rather compact white head that shows good enough retention and nice lacing. Good intensity and freshness in a clean aroma: the slightest cerealish/white bread base overcome by vivid mango and peach notes over a resinous/piney base. Taste is medium sweet and medium to high bitter, with a balanced mouth and a bittering edge in a semi-dry finish. Maltiness in the background but not timid, with a slightly grainy/cerealish and white bread base and also a pleasant hint of honey. Clean and vivid hoppy notes with a resinous/piney base followed by notes of mango, peach and lighter citric hints. A pleasant half piney/half fruity aftertaste. Light to medium bodied, with average carbonation. Quite lively, goes down easy. Overall a quite classic apa, borderlining ipa. Maybe this beer has nothing special that really makes it stand out, but it's well made, fairly intense and very refreshing. A nice one

Bottle, thank you daniele. Golden semi clear pour, tick and frothy cap. Nose: pretty soapy, dish soap, hay. Mouth: medium-high carbonation, thin, not bad, not very charming either.

Bottle. Pours cloudy yellow. Aroma is citric, lemon, soap. Body is light, actually almost thin, lively carbonation, low flavours. Simple enough to enjoy its refreshing capacities. Good.

On tap at Vrteška. Murky golden body with a white head. Light, vaguely tropical fruity aroma, but too light. Taste... big elderflower notes, fresh, smooth and creamy, quite tasty. Not a bad beer at all.
