Can on Alitalia out of Rome. Light nose with some grassy hops. Light malt flavor, a bit of corn, but pretty decent hopping make it a bit of a surprise for an industrial lager. Light and clean. Refreshing.

Trockener Antrunk mit verhaltenenen herb-Süßen Noten. Die Süße legt leicht zu, wird aber von der hopfigen Würzigkeit übertroffen. Das Bier ist so rund aber nicht übermäßig intensiv, süffig, gelungen. Stimmiges Bier ohne großen Anspruch. 8/8/9/8/7/8

28/08 0.33 l bottle from Coop store, Gradisca d’Isonzo. It poured golden body with small head that lived short. Very weak malty aroma, almost non existent. Flavor is malty as well, sweetish of course, slightly unclean. Medium body. Not overly sweet, even in the finish which even showed some light coffee notes that are not excepted to be here. Slightly alcoholic throughout whole flavor. Strange and hard to define, but in general not bad, highly drinkable heller bock.

First of two Italian lagers tried at Pub Italia (the other being Pedavena). Came in a 330ml brown bottle with a best before: 06.2012 served in one of their glass (which is slim and straight). Pours a yellow colour with a white foamy head which has decent lasting and good lacing. Not much taste and kind of watery. Pilsner tasting with mild grass and even a little corn in the aftertaste. Refreshing wet mouthfeel which is pretty carbonated. Its nose is soft with malt. Overall, a watery pils that is not bad, but nothing really special (like most Italian lagers).

66cl green bottle, green label, 0.89€. Different design but i think the content is the same. Opening the bottle a moderate hoppy smell came out. Clear Pale yellow, minimal and not good-looking head. Light a roma of herbs, malt, grains, cardboard, metal. Thin bodied, aggressive harsh bitterness, average carbonation, metallic. Typical discount quality, not terrible.

Platter, etwas süßer Antrunk. Nun eher getreidig, weiterhin aber sehr mild und alles andere als aromatisch. Weich süß-herb, süffig. Im Abgang noch wenig getreidig, durch die leichte Süße immerin als Erfrischung angenehm, ziemlich süffig. Ein Sommebier ohne Ansprüche. 6/6/8/6/5/6

Another goodie from top-level Italian industrial beer, Castello. 33cl bottle, alc 6.5%, brewed at S.Giorgio di Nogaro plant. Clear amber red, short beige head, center goes down quickly but a ring always remains on the glass. Aroma is toasted cereals, caramel, hop, maybe a note of cherry. Tickly ans slicky mouthfeel, balanced bittersweet, dry. Body is thin for a red, gassy and a bit harsh, but drinkable and refreshing. Got a pitcher of this at Pedavena plant, it was a lot of fun.

0.66 L brewed at S.Giorgio Di Nogaro plant, 4.8°. Nice design, "since 1997", features itself as a young beer. Pale gold, short head, very light aroma, floral, notes of honey. Highly carbonated, dry, balanced, great for "heavy drinking" instead of slow sipping. Quite light, good with cheese and north-italian dishes. Simple but enjoyable very cold on hot spring\summer days. It’s a weak industrial beer, but absolutely above other common italian beers. --- Again, 0.66 bottle, from Pedavena plant. Almost the same,seems that it has less floral notes.
