Coca-Cola coloured beer under yellow-brown head. Nutty, chocolate, sweet fusels... Fusels and alcohol returning in the taste, but generally quite balanced, if on the sweet side. Nuttiness and some dark fruit emerge, and despite the thick, slick initial MF, the beer is very drinkable. Unfortunately, it falls flat at the end. This is certainly a promising beer, big thanks to the brewer for sharing.

Bottle from A Tutta Birra, Milan
Hazy amber color; gushing bottle; the head reduces to a persistent layer. Very nice aroma of hops and cereals. Strong cereals and malt flavor, residual sweetness, good body, quite good bitterness. Pleasant but rough.

Bottle from Birratrovo, Como
Cloudy amber color; thin head; high carbonation. The aroma shows some spicy yeast (coriander). Good body structure, malt flavor, quite spicy (coriander), with correct bitterness; the mouthfeel is a bit drier at the end. Quite good Belgian styled.

Marks for Appearance are an average, as beer was sampled in weak artificial light after dark. Very hoppy, some malts, and a fish-like, faraway salty aroma, iodine. Dry hopbales; Hops, nuts and liquorice. Ends again on saltiness, an a flavour like mushrooms. Quite carbonated, medium bodied. Quite good, certainly for a prime edition. Pleasing brew.

Black, viscous pouring beer with no head to speak of. Concentrated coffee, aged in brandy barrel, very complex. Liquid black chocolate, with a dash of expensive brandy, cacao powder with coffee to round it off (like cappucino the other way round). Superbly viscous alcohol to a bomb, wow! Caro Massimo! Stop making light beers. Your destination lies in the higher alcohols - like this. It rocks! Mille grazie for the tasting!
