Today’s 2nd beer is an Oktoberfest from Italy’s Birradamare: Birra Roma Ambrata. I picked up a six-pack on sale as some labels were scuffed, lucky me! 5.5% bottle from Rakuten. Drunk from a glass beer mug. An opaque nutty honey looking brown with a thick foamy head. Quite a fruity-wine like aroma reminiscent of Belgian yeast. A nice full bodied mouthfeel with some nutty, biscuity qualities & a touch of spicy smoke. I think Japanese people would call it "goku". The online reviews had me not expecting much so I was pleasently surprised! This is pretty tasty! A really solid beer.

Weird little 33cl bottle pours a hazy, caramel amber with some thin, off white head. Nose is yeast, a little biscotti, cracker, some apple, bread. Flavor takes a sharp turn, tomatoes, celery seed, bread, a little cardboard, some odd smokey. Strange, sweet finish. Why can’t these Italian brewers just try and stick to styles?

Tørr, funky, smaker sært, fizzy og spruter ved åpning. Herregud så lei jeg er av infisert italiensk øl

Nåja. Litt vel søt og fruktig kanskje? Og Fizzy og fløende. Infisert?

Bottle sample at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Thanks zvikar. Black-colored with a tiny bit of light brown foam. Pleasant big coffee aroma with a bit of smokiness. Bittersweet flavor, roasty, coffee-ish and somewhat smoky, especially in the finish. Very nice.

Bottle at home. Pours a hazy reddish colour with a small off-white head. Both aroma and flavour is pretty sweet with lots of caramel, wood, dried fruit and brown sugar. Has a very rich and slick mouth feel, and a light bitterness. A sweet and powerful ale.
