Draught Good white head over veiled orangey golden beer. Dessert wine indeed. Wood, grape essence, faint aldehydes. Again some aldehyde, noble rot; alcohol, even fusels. Sweet wine, flavoured sugar. Very sticky, well bodied; good carbonation. Serious, if slightly less brilliant than some other Guggenbräu products.

Draught Small cream-coloured rim over veiled ruby - brown beer. Faint horseblanket, nuts, chestnuts, dark grains & kernels. Delicate acidity, lactic, lemony, pinewood, pinenuts. Again some lemony notes, floral. Lipsmacking acidity, good carbonation, acidthinning. Excellent! That said, and despite some similarities, the classification "lambic-style" is stretching it.

Draught Medium, dense white head over hazy yellow beer. Penetrating nose of some particula white wine sort, vinous, herbal as some wines with meadow herbs & flowers. Again vinous as the nose, with the acids needed in wine, and some serious astringency. End of every sip has winegrape sweetness. Sharp, dry, undercarbonated. Excellent hybrid, following the IGA rules.

Bottiglia. Il naso riconosce sentori di fruttato. La finezza olfattiva è normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido appare trasparente. Il colore è ramato. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato si fermano note di miele, frutta secca, pane cotto di recente, luppolo, un accenno di resinoso, agrumi, pompelmo, arancia rossa e mandarino. Alcool presente.

Draught Huge pinkish foam, clear reddish amber beer. Alcohol in the nose! As some genever with berries. Some toast. Sweet-sourish fruit. Lactic acid, and again, sharp alcohol. Red fruit, grapes, Weinbrand. Light burning MF, acid- and alcoholbite. Just a tad too sharp, the alcohol and the acids combining.

Cask Small BC'H' head, but resistant! over hazy ochre beer. Grains, malt (+/- Crystal-like, smeling rather neutral. Ys! the British taste wiht a fleeting acidity, then going over into insular (maybe not) malts. Sweet, almost no bitterness. The difference: no (or too little )UK hops. The right: the malts.

Draught Not much head over fully cloudy pale yellow liquid. Lactic acid, mild, but very much upfront. Wey, green fruit. Mild lactic acidity, buttermilk, but also floral, rhubarb. Light, slight acidburn and -thinning. Original and tasty! I loved it!

This Südtiroler brewery from the very north of Italy is making good stuff! Not overly acidic at all, brilliant citrus (slight) sourness from the hops. Bit of melon as well. Very simple but well balanced and delightful.
