On tap @Buskers Pub (Rome). Ambrata carica, mediamente torbida, schiuma bianca media, discretamente persistente. Al naso leggero affumicato, caramello, note erbacee. In bocca è perfettamente bilanciata, con un attacco abboccato, una chiusura leggermente amara a bilanciarla e un affumicato leggero. Corpo medio-leggero, carbonazione media. Birra di splendida fattura, equilibrio e pulizia, e si beve anche facile. Complimenti!

Dark amber to the lightest red, quite hazy, especially per style. Medium sized white head, showing good enough retention and lacing. Average intensity in the aroma with a base of slightly bready caramel malts, an averagely strong, relatively unusual smoked profile (smoked cheese, ashes/campfire), the slightest floral hops hint. Clean. Nicely clean and well defined in taste too, with average flavour intensity as the smell suggested. Caramel malty base with a light bready suggestion, bringing a bit of sweet base. A quite interesting smoked notes profile with smoked cheese (scamorza) most noticeable, some woody/campfire, slightly pungent smokiness, very light smoked ham (speck). A floral hops background, mostly felt in finish/aftertaste, mild but probably more noticeable than usual for the style. Overall medium to low sweetness and medium to low bitterness, very good balance, semi-dry clean finish. Light to slightly above light in body, light to medium delicate carbonation, quite smooth. Good stuff.

Dark brown with a tan head. Toasted malts, dry coffee, sweet cream, light chocolate. It’s full of roasted coffee notes but it somehow stays light unlike many coffee beers. Medium bodied. No heavy finish but it stays lighter making it one of the most drinkable coffee beers I’ve had. Really nice.

Pours mid amber (pretty much on the dark side for the style) with some haziness. Medium sized white head, good enough retention and a bit of lacing. Not much intensity in a clean, simple aroma: bready, slightly biscuity notes, maybe the slightest hint of nuttiness, a touch of honey. Taste notes as per aroma, mainly malty as the smell suggested though with a plus of gentle earthy hoppiness. Slightly sweet in the mouth with a pleasant hint of warmth, excellent balance in a perfectly clean finish/aftertaste. Light to medium bodied, delicate carbonation; feels super easy to drink but also gives a light, comforting warming sensation. Overall a relatively simple but very well made beer. Not especially rich or intense, but balance, refinement and delicacy are top notch.

Handpump at Gentle Boozers. Toasted spice cookie nose. Opaque darkest brown, brown cream. Lovely roast. Medium light, pumped foamy mouthfeel. Creamy coffee, milk and roast, feels a lot more substantial than what it says on the box. I had the excellent coffee porter before, but even without flavoring they can make a world class beer.
