Description
Je m'appelle Emanuele Corazzini et j'ai créé NovaBirra en 2008. Passionné de bières artisanales, je suis allé à la rencontre des brasseurs audacieux et innovants de nos régions. C'est à leur contact qu'est née l'idée de proposer des cours de brassage afin de partager mes connaissances de la bière. Au fil des années, j'ai pu faire découvrir notre patrimoine brassicole à de nombreux enthousiastes. Et pour certains, NovaBirra a aidé à la réalisation de leur rêve: créer et commercialiser leur propre bière!
Depuis 2011, je brasse mes propres bières: Big Mama Stout, Big Nose Triple, Holy IPA et Seed of the New Grace.
Je soutiens également des projets de personnes ayant suivis mes cours de brassage.

Cloudy (though bubbles are visible) deep orange amber color, big frothy off-white head, good retention, fair lacing. Aroma at first somewhat shy, lemon, orange, apricot, marmalade, grassy, soap. Taste medium sweet, medium bitter, citrus, herbal notes. Medium body, oily to creamy texture, soft carbonation, bit spicy mouthfeel, finish dry bitter, spicy and herbal notes, overall a nice saison.

Tripel from the NovaBirra beer company brewed at De Ranke. Stable, sticky, off-white head over a clear, deep orange blonde beer. Aroma of grapefruit, orange peel, peach, grass, pineapple, strawberry and caramel; fruity taste with sharpish carbonation, peachy, mango, caramelly malts, spicy yeastiness, quite long finish of grassy hop bitterishness, a bit citrussy. More than decent.

Bottle at Chez Moeder Lambic Saint-Gilles - Brussels. Pours clear amber-gold with a frothy, off-white head. The nose has some toasted cereal grains, berries, ripening orange. Medium sweet flavor with cereal sugars, bitter grain husks, some dirty hay, citrus rind, light tangy tangerine. Light-medium bodied with average carbonation. Moderately sweet to finish with further cereal grains, some dry bread, berries and leaves, slight tart berries, leather, earth. So so.
