Prodotta con aggiunta di fiori di Salvia Sclarea (di Montegioco), denota un bel color ambra, limpido, molto vivo e presenta un naso complesso, con note fruttate (agrumi e frutta rossa), di caramello, speziate, floreali (violetta, rosa). In bocca è molto piena, morbida, di grande corpo, evidenziando il calore dell’alcol. Lunga e complessa, ha un percorso molto articolato verso un finale in cui l’amaro è atipico, molto aromatico, speziato, vegetale; ricorda un amaro alle erbe, lunghissimo nel retrolfatto.

Bottle from GBBF 2013 and drunk at home. Is this a Belgian Ale? Yes it is! Wow I guessed a style! One of my favourite games on this site. I drink the beer, decide the style and then see if RB agrees. Fairly generic Belgian Ale, some hop, some esters, some malt, some sweetness. Not very exciting, but utterly fine.

30/05/2013 Bir& Fud (tap). Dorata, leggermente torbida, schiuma leggera, fine, poco persistente. Al naso sentori di malto, speziati e di salvia. In bocca ha un attacco di malto, lieviti, speziato, finale appena amarognolo, non così equilibrata. Corpo medio, carbonazione media. Un po’ sottotono rispetto agli standard del birrificio Montegioco.

Tap at Open Baladin, Roma - 02/10/12. Slightly hazy golden with no head. A certain sourness to the nose, sour mango, peach and apricot. Taste follows but the flavours aren’t quite as prominent as the nose. Medium bodied with little carbonation leading to a slightly sour and fruity finish,

Vintage 2008, batch 11/08, 3 years old
Beautiful light amber color, hazy; medium sized head, although there was a high pressure in the bottle. The aroma is interesting, a bit puckery; there is some malt, light fruitiness, very light herbs and cabbage. Lean body, but round mouthfeel; there is some residual sweetness that makes it pleasant to drink, with light malt flavor and sage; there is also a light fruity touch (peaches). Correct bitterness. Very well balanced and still fresh.

Cloudy amber beer. Soft to semi dry palate. Moderate carbonation. Wheaty malt with some orangey hop that doesn’t bite at all. A little herb bitterness underlying. Finishes soft and dry. Not bad.
