Prodotta a partire dalla Demon Hunter con aggiunta, in fermentazione, di ciliegie “Bella di Garbagna” (Presidio Slow Food). Nel bicchiere evidenzia un bellissimo rosso corallo, molto originale; il naso è fortemente caratterizzato dalla Bella di Garbagna, che si esprime con note di ciliegia fresca, con ricordi di frutta di bosco, oltre ad un sottile floreale di geranio. In bocca è ricca, avvolgente, con dolcezza di frutta (ribes nero) e amaro di tannino; il finale è molto elegante, complesso, dove è evidentissima la ciliegia sciroppata (lunghissima nel retrolfattivo), accompagnata da una lieve nota sapida, minerale. Birra, elegante, complessa, ma che mantiene buona facilità di beva.

Bottle in Rome, purchased from Domus Birrae. A 7.5% version. Cloudy brown beer. Residual white head. Light dry palate. Sourish dried fruits with a little bubblegum. The fruits are nice but this ultimately ends up dry and overall a bit dull.

Bottled. An unclear dark red beer with no head. The aroma has notes of cherries, and some malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of cherries, fruit, and malt, leading to a dry tart finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle 37,5 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a cloudy pale red with a tiny off-white head. Minerally aroma with dry red berry notes - not really distinctly cherry. Medium body, carbonation is a little low, slightly sweet berry fruitiness with a little yeast and phenols. The alcohol is fairly subdued. Not really that interesting, but at least genuine fruit. 190511

Batch G 2007, 9% ABV
Cloudy orange-amber color; big frothy head; indeed there is a lot of carbonation in the bottle. Strange aroma, fruity flowery and soapy, strong. Good body, good Strong Ale, with some sugars; there is a light fruity character, soapy too; at the end, in the low bitterness, there is a light impression of liquorice. It’s a very good beer, but the soap touch puts me off (6-4-7-3-13=33)

Give it some times, the soap aroma goes away, and leaves the place to a hint of honey and herbs. Still solid mouthfeel and flavor, but not enough bitterness (7-4-7-3-14=35).

Head soon gone; red-hazy amber beer. Very fruity, sour cherries, and old cognac. Serious point of acidity. Fruity, lactic-sour, laurel leaf, very dry finish. Dry, dry-out effect, rather light impression because of the acids; Liked it at least as much as the Barriquée version, even when that makes it more spectacular, short of better.
