Carried home from Italy, April 2009, where I bought it at Johnny’s Off License in Rome, and shared June 2011. Very nice, opaque bright orange color. A great looking beer. Big, rocky, pillow-like, white head. Light sweet with yeast, strong earthy quality with dirt and grass. Very light spice. A good beer.

Bottle. Pours dark brown, almost black. Wonderful full aroma of toffee, caramel, molasses, red grapes, orange peel and barley grains. Taste is the same, but less powerful. Medium body - maybe a little light for the ABV, but still satisfying.

Riserva 2009; 1 year old, batch L34.09, bb 12-14 (Dec 2014)
Hazy red-amber color, beautiful, with a medium-sized creamy head. Light aroma, caramel dust and liquorice. Good body structure; simple malt and caramel flavor, some sweetness, too much (sweet) liquorice for such a beer, and also the alcohol is too evident. Correct bitterness. Unexpected, but also a bit disappointing.
