Commercial Description:
Birra Moretti La Rossa is a double bock beer produced using high quality 100% malted barley, giving it a rich sweet taste and an intense fragrance of roasted malt. The amber colour that characterizes the beer, comes from kind of malt used in the recipe (malt is dried, roasted barley). Another key ingredients is hops, the variety used is particularly aromatic, giving a characteristic bitter aftertaste and a delicate fragrance to the beer. The Master Brewers advise a service temperature between 10° and 12° C.

Bottle... Poured amberish-red with a thick off-white head. Bready malts and caramel on the nose. Good carbonation that matches the style. Lots of cocoa and malt flavors. Very clean and mellow for 7.2%.

Bottle. Pours a orange brown color with an off-white head. Aroma of malts and fruit. Flavor is mostly of toffee flavors with a slight alcohol tastes with a very slight bitter finish. Decent beer.

Pours a darker amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of roasted malts, caramel, dark fruits, and a slight hint of some hops. Flavor is pretty strong of the roasted malts at first. Finishes sweet from the caramel, dark fruits, and some hops. Suprisingly it has a slight warming on the finish.

12 ounce bottle - $1.49 at Total Wine & More in Kennesaw, Georgia. A gusher upon opening -- that doesn’t exactly bode well. Appearance: Pours a clear, dark reddish-brown body with a frothy, off-white head. Smell: Sweet-smelling malty aroma along with a large, wafting note of raisins. Taste: Sweet, toasty blend of caramel and toffee. Hint of Bit-o-Honey candy. Slight fruity, raisiny twang that emerges midway. Lightly spicy hops and bitterness. One single, solitary drop of alcohol. Finishes sweetish and fruity. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Just the very slightest stickiness to the mouthfeel. Drinkability: A sweet-tasting, easy drinking, relatively cheap beer. So, it definitely has some things going for it.

APPEARANCE: Pours a clear amber-brown color with a large tan head that dissipates at average pace. A little bit of lacing. AROMA: Toasted malts, caramel, alcohol and little dark fruit (prune). FLAVOR: Similar to aroma with toasted malts and some dark fruit. I also get hints of chocolate and molasses. Some lingering alcohol flavors. MOUTHFEEL Smooth medium body beer with creamy texture and light carbonation. DRINKABILITY: Easy drinking beer but a little too sweet for me. The high alcohol content wears on me a bit. Finally there is a slight metallic taste that I don’t like.

Red at pour with large head. Yeasty and somewhat nut brown in the aroma and flavors. Kind of carbonated with an alcoholic bite, which affects drinkability.
