Description
Italian local couple Massimiliano & Sonia, who initially aimed to produce beer only for the family, without the idea of obtaining revenue or even making it a real job, set up the Maiella brewery. Since our first beers in 2008, now several years have passed, the brewery has been forced to move to the home of 'Noonas' at a higher altitude due to the low fermentation.

RBESG 2010, draught at Open Baladin, 3.4% ABV
Cloudy blond color; generous head. The aroma is lemony and herbal. Weak mouthfeel, dry, with herbal (rosemary) flavor, ordinary bitterness. Not a beer for me.

RBESG 2010, bottle at Brasserie 4:20
Muddy blond color. Besides the nice label, it’s just another simple Belgial Ale, with some spice character, but also too much yeast. Low bitterness.
