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.

75 cl bottle shared with Joes, Dutchdrebus and Martinus. Deep dark red color, medium to full sized decently lasting beige head. Smell roasted malts, lightly cocoa, chocolate. Taste malts, cocoa, roastyness, bitterness. Nice but a bit thin. Low to medium body, a bit too much carbonation. In the end I’m disappointed.

Bottle from Malting Pot, Brussels
Cloudy dark brown color, small frothy head. Aroma of roasted malts, a bit dusty. The carbonation is too high; some dry chocolate flavor and roasted malts; correct bitterness; the body is lean, not as strong as expected; correct bitterness; in the final there is a light presence of yeast, although covered by the other components.
Average.
