Carried home from Rome to share at a Minnesota tasting. Personally recommended to me by John, this was a good choice. Black color. The cap exploded from the bottle, but there is no gushing. Aroma has malt, and also is lightly sour, but this is a light sourness, like a brown ale or porter that has some age on it. Grain the flavor, oak, very dry red wine.

Bottle. Sweet-tart cherry malt aroma. Dark brown color with moderate light brown head. Sweet-tart brown sugar and cherry malt flavor. Nice body and smoothness. A very nice beer - definitely worth a trip to Johnny’s.

Shared by JK at Skyview’s tasting. Not sure if this was supposed to be tart or sourish, never can tell with the Italians. I did not enjoy that character in this beer though. Its a dar brown color, almost black. Aroma is pear and tart berry over a porter tobacco. Some ash and tea aspects in there as well. Flavor is tart and astringently thin porter. Cool stuff but not for me.

Black color; creamy head. Nice aroma, chocolate and roasted malt, with a light sour note. Medium body strength, good chocolate flavor and caramel, light residual sweetness and light sourness; light liquorice at the end too; it ends not very bitter, but a bit vinous. Complex, well balanced.
