30/06/2012 Ma che siete venuti a fà (handpump). Ambrata, abbastanza limpida, schiuma leggerissima. Aroma molto deciso di luppolo, con note agrumate, di limone in primis, di intensità inusuale in una bitter, leggermente sporco. In bocca è mediamente amara, secca, di buona persistenza. Corpo leggero, carbonazione soft. Un concentrato di luppolo molto interessante.

Geringfügig säuerlicher Malzbeginn mit leichtern Fruchtnoten. Dabei bleibt das Malz fast durchgehend im Hintergrund und bildet die Basis. Säuerlich bleiobend, was das Bier sehr speziell wirken lässt. Im Nachgeschmack ist das Malz wichtiger, bleibt von der Intensität aber hinter den Erwartungen zurück. 12/10/9/9//9

Angenehm hopfiger Beginn. Der Hopfen bleibt konstant, die Bitterkeit steigt stark. Intensiv, weich. Dann trocken bitter, knackig hopfiges Finish. Kann was! 7/11/10/11//11

15/06/2012 Ma che siete venuti a fà (handpump). Dorata, lievemente torbida, bella schiuma bianca che sparisce rapidamente. Al naso molta frutta, limone, agrumi, passionfruit, forse un po’ forzata e non pulitissima per la verità, puzza un po’ di piedi. In bocca amaro deciso e persistente, agrumi, limone, lieve astringenza. Corpo medio-basso, carbonazione soft. Not my cup of tea.

Hand bottle at my Pre-CBC Tune-Up Tasting, thanks to Leighton. It pours hazy amber, with no head. The nsoe is alcohol, leaf, raw hop, citrus and spice. The taste is resin, grass, citrus fruit, obvious alcohol warmth, spice, raisin and currant, with a very warming finish. Medium body, low carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Very hot indeed. Aggressive in many aspects, but doesn’t have the body to carry them off. A bit of a letdown, unlike Ian’s ticking ability.
