Description
For over 15 years we have been proud producers of wholemeal craft beers, all strictly unfiltered and unpasteurized.
Beer is an age-old product and we wanted to interpret it in a contemporary key, always keeping a connection with tradition.
Birra OV is crafted with the aim, indeed the duty, to maintain the organoleptic qualities, totally avoiding preservaties’ use in order to guarantee both the high quality and the customer’s satisfaction, which will always be our most important goal.

Small but persistent white head; beautiful golden colour. DIACETYL! and that’s it for the nose (OK, there’s some grainy aroma hidden as well). Horribly sharp taste and mouthfeel, citrussy but aggressive, together with the diacetyl no other flavours left. Sharp, astrigent. Diacetyl ruins it all; MF way too aggressive.

Draught at Bi-Du Beer Fest 2007
Cloudy orange color. Nice creamy hop aroma, with a touch of cereals and honey. Medium body strength, good malt flavor, velvety, with honey too; strong bitterness.
Chaotic, but brewed with good hops and very pleasant: my congrats.

A hazy orange beer with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet malty. The flavor is sweet malty, though with a slight acidity lying in the background, but also with an OK hoppiness. OK, but not that exciting. Thanks Alex (fiulijn) for bringing it to Denmark.

A hazy orange beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet spicy with light notes of oranges and peaches. The flavor is sweet and slightly acidic, with primary notes being fruits, especially peaches and oranges. Thanks, Alex (fiulijn) for bringing this to Denmark.

An unclear dark amber beer with a thick orange head. The aroma is sweet hoppy, but also with a hint of butter. The flavor is sweet malty with lots of hops, giving it a good flavor and a dry end, but also some hints of butter. Remove the butter and this is very good, but still a decent beer. Thanks to Alex (fiulijn) for bringing this to Denmark.

Hazy dark amber color. Quite nice craft aroma of malt and caramel. Good malty taste. Some sweetness, smooth, sweet caramel; simple but pleasant.
