Commercial Description:
Prima Donna Special Lager is a classic lager noted for its unique aroma and its unsurpassed hoppy flavour. It is characterized by a brillant golden color, a compact head, and its fresh, thirst-quenching qualities.

An Oscar-winning beer
…we chose to call our beer Gradisca, because we brew it in this corner of Romagna and San Marino, between the sea and the hills, a land rich in history and amazing stories. But above all, as a tribute to an illustrious celebrity who was born here, film director Frederico Fellini, who conquered cinema-goers the whole world over with his rich and poetic vein of inspiration, winning as many as four Oscars for his films, including, of course, Amarcord, where Gradisca is the protagonist. 4.7% Alc. Vol.

Note: Uses the name Gradisca on the local market, and Prima Donna for export.

Impressive! Pours a cloudy yellow with a long-lasting white heat and nice lacing. Aroma is a coppery with hints of grass. Tastes a smooth mild hoppy flavor with a nice, sweet chocolate undertone. Very enjoyable, recommended.

Amarcord Gradisca (Bottled 0,50L - ABV 5.2%). Fraught yellow color, optimal bubbly and head aspect. Slightly watered aroma with light rumors of dampen cereals, dried grass, macerated grain. Stinging taste, much lively one with pleasantly balanced bitter final.

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma has notes of grain, malt, brewmash, and some hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of grain, brewmash, and some straw, leading to a smooth hay finish.

Swing-top bottle. Orange, lemon and barley malt aroma. Slightly hazy golden color with moderate head. Sweet light orange and barley malt flavor. Light body. Nice, easy drinking beer - but pretty light.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is an ok biscuity malt. Flavor is again mostly biscuit malt but a nice hop bite follows I don’t get in most lagers. This has more body than your average lager and its quite solid.
