On Tap at Lortica, Bologna, Italia, 25.02.11 My dad said he gets liqourice and I knew what he meant. This is quite strong, pours black with a beige head. Easy drinking beer that slips down well, touch of cherryade came from nowhere. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

From cask at Bibo in Bologna (ABV listed as 6.4%). Pours very dark brown with a bubbly brown head. Sweet and heavy ginger aroma. No carbonation. Seems a bit dead but not completely gone. Flavour is dry and slight acidic to herbal with mellow ginger note. I hate ginger in beer, but this is not what is putting me off here - it works out okay - but the cask is just dead by now (been on for a couple of weeks and slight too warm). Acidic flavour with slight chocolate smoothness and liqourice sharpness, intruiging blend. Somewhat chemical in the finish. Not my style but not offensive by any means.
