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.

12 oz. bottle from Beer Run in Charlottesville. Brown-tinged red with a fizzy 2-finger head. Roasted malt aroma with some dark fruits. Roasted grain taste with plum and raisin notes, with caramel and banana in the finish. Medium bodied.

Pours a deep golden brown color with a small tan colored head. Aroma is very sweet and malty with some caramel and woody notes. Flavor starts very sweet and picks up a nice biscuit breadiness. Some deep roasted malts lead into a nutty finish with some bitterness that lingers. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice even bock beer that simply fits the standard.

Bottle from Total Wine. Pours a large tan-colored head over an amber body with tight curtains of lacing. The nose is malty with notes of wheat and toffee. Similar flavors that include cola, subtle toffee, more roasted maltiness, and subtle caramel. Low carbonation and medium/full body. Alcohol content is hidden well. A decent beer; very representative for the style.

If you’ve ever had sweet rolls in a steakhouse or b-b-q stop, you’ll have an idea about this brew. Very sweet, malty, slight yeastiness. Despite lightness, there’s a lot to the beer. I liked it a lot. Almost dessert-like in quality, good for post-dinner.

Import courtesy of Ma and Pa Jenner. Ruby pour swirled with beige. Dabs of lace. Slightly vegetal nutty malt, demerara and Twiglet aroma as exuded by a Doppelbock. Loads of cooked brown sugar, caramel, faint Marmite yeastiness. Slick and soapy smooth with traces of roast and malt loaf stickiness. Alcohol pretty well hid. Excessively sweet but not without a certain charm. Sort of pleasantly sugary dark malty brew you’d be relieved to find in a desert devoid of anything better eg. southern Spain, Greece, Hinckley etc.
