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!

Light brown, bubbly head, grapefruit, orange, toasty malt...this is always compelling for me. Bitter, with rich chocolate malts, deep grapefruit and full of dark malts. Medium body at best but that helps it go down.

Hazy blonde ale, thick head. Big mango and orange AmHop aroma. Very rich, piney bitterness, the pale malts only getting a little bit doughy, lingering citrus and resins, and there’s a touch of yeastiness that lends it a little rusticity.

Pale, straw, slight haze. Aroma mixes pale malt and smoke. Sweet, smoky character, and it’s beech and tasty. Another smoke whore tick.

Bottle in my hotel room, Trastevere, from Johnny’s II - 10/02/14. Hazed orange with a moderate off white head that stays for the show. Nose is light citrics, peach, toasty malt, grassy, bitter orange, faint soap. Taste comprises orange pith, light hop bill, straw, earthy pangs, hint more of that soapyness. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so, not true to style, more veering towards an APA with the hop presence, the soap also lets it down a little but doesn’t make it a chore to drink,.

Draft @ ML Fontainas. Dorée, col blanc épais. Arôme offre de belles notes fruitées oscillant sur un citronné très subtil. Note fleuri également présente. Palais est très léger avec un parfumé des houblons qui accompagne chaque gorgée et rappelle une essence de thé vert, note noble houblonnée pour un amérisant modéré tout comme le fruité qui reste essentiellement centré sur un citronné. Malt reste de base avec un côté pils. Fini est assez sec au niveau du houblonnage.

Sampled at Ma Che in Rome (from the bottle I think?). Pours cloudy yellow-gold with a creamy white head. Nice aroma of grapefruit and tangerine along with doughy pale malts and light pee. Light to medium sweet flavor, moderately dry, with nice dried citrus, urine, faint onion, tangerine. Light to medium bodied with fine, smooth carbonation. Clean finish with further dried out citrus, mild pith and rind, faint grass, more tangerine. Lovely.
