Description
Il Birrificio prende il nome dalla sorgente del Lambro, il nostro amato e tanto bistrattato fiume, simbolo, nel bene e nel male, di questo territorio (una sorgente particolare, purissima, che un po’ mena… un po’ resta… viva, come la nostra birra!).
Il logo riproduce la sperada, tipica acconciatura femminile in uso in Brianza fino all’inizio del ‘900, ornamento che le spose indossavano il giorno del matrimonio e che univa trasversalmente la gente di ogni estrazione sociale. Come solo può fare la birra!

Bottle from Birrivico, Como
Pitch black, with barely any head. Strong aroma of iodine, dark malts, chocolate, molasses. Flavor of dark malts with very light sourness, no chocolate; it has a fairly strong smoke presence, quite salty too; the bitterness seems on the low side and the final is short, with some liquorice; it could do better with some more sweetness.
Very good beer.

Vintage 2013. 330mL bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Nose is impeccably complex, with loads of complex whiskey barrels, medium smokiness, and some roast -- lovely aroma. Flavour is complex, though maybe not as much as the nose suggests, with peat, ash, smoke, etc. whiskey barrels, and some roast. Could use a touch more carbonation to make it more full-bodied, but this is really nice as is. Great stuff.

On tap @Buskers Pub (Rome). Pours unclear yellow with a little white head. Aroma is floral and spiced with some hoppy notes, grassy. Flavour is light sweet with a good bitter end, light sour, delicate but great! Light body, medium carbonation. So nice...

Flaske fra Kihoskh, delt med Ovesen på Holmens aktivitetsdag: brunsvart med fint beige skum. Aroma: furunål, grapefrukt og kaffe/røstet malt. Smaken likeledes, og den er lekkert balansert. Slank, og med avrundet bitterhet i ettersmaken. Raske leker (lekre saker).
