Short-lived, off-white head; slightly hazy orange-amber beer. Very spicy nose, minty, sweet pepper - but I canโt get truffle aroma. Dry, leafy, autumnleaves, alcohol and fusels, retronasal even like old brandy, and cinnamon in the finish. Alcoholburn, sharpish; slick and medium bodied. Very interesting beer. Iโm convinced the beer might have benefitted from being even more stressed on the truffles. Mille grazie to Lorenzo and the Italian gang!

Cloudy deep blond color; the bottle is gushing a bit, and there is a big head in the glass. The aroma is lightly spicy, and with chemicals. The combination of the cereals used and honey produce a chemical flavor, medicine; unpleasant.

Amber color; big head. Light caramel aroma, very light fruitness and yeast. It has some caramel flavor and a medium-dry mouthfeel; correct bitterness. Simple.

Hazy deep blond color; poor head. It has a very nice hop aroma, like a mix of Saaz with a hint of Cascade. There is a fairly good malt flavor and toffee, and a good hopping, aromatic and with a light fruity touch. Good.

Cloudy amber color; small head. Aroma of chewing-gum, light cinnamon and anise. Good body strength, malt and caramel flavor, with good bitterness level and light spicy touch. Quite good.

Dark brown color; no head; almost no carbonation. Yeast aroma. Solid body, caramel and roasted malt flavor, Porter-like, correct bitterness, but also the unmistakeable homebrew style.

Hazy dark amber color; too much carbonation, quite gushing; big frothy head. Light aroma of caramel, hop, yeast. Dry caramel flavor and chocolate (more at the end); strong bitterness; light yeast feeling. Not bad, but boring.
