Copper color, hazy; creamy head. The aroma is mild, but clearly cheesy (Parmigiano Reggiano, call it parmesan). Good malt and caramel flavor, enough sweetness, full bodied, with good hops; strong bitterness; overall well balanced. Well built beer, but the cheese presence, even if not bad, is a bit weird.

Blond color, clean; huge head, but no perlage. The aroma is hoppy, very earthy, some manure. Sweet flavor, but without the expected body/malt/toffee; powerful and aromatic hopping, fruity and earthy/grassy. Really different, maybe a bit too pale and sweet (I mean, without the usual body and the adequate toffee balance, but really enjoyable for the lovers of the style (as I am).
