<i> Marks for Appearance are an average, as beer was sampled in weak artificial light after dark.</i> Very hoppy, some malts, and a fish-like, faraway salty aroma, iodine. Dry hopbales; Hops, nuts and liquorice. Ends again on saltiness, an a flavour like mushrooms. Quite carbonated, medium bodied. Quite good, certainly for a prime edition. Pleasing brew.

<i>My Bottom Line:</i><br /> Herbal hops and comforting bready yeast swirl around fresh cereals in this balanced and very drinkable Belgian-style Ale.<br /> <br /> <i>Further Personal Perceptions:</i><br /> -A gorgeous tower of foam rises atop the misty amber.<br /> -The hop signature is very herbal and slightly floral, well-levelled with the rest of the proposed flavors.<br /> -Carbonation is fluffy and increases drinkability.<br /> -Some fruity caramel maltiness is also perceived.<br /> -This may be a tad too yeasty in the flavor profile to completely seduce me.<br /> -This is a special batch brewed to inaugurate the new, customized equipment which they have bought themselves. A pretty solid first try if you ask me!<br /> -The nose faithfully announces what the flavor profile reveals.<br /> -The herbal hop bitterness builds with each sip but remains approachable.<br /> <br /> <b>Bottles; best before June ’09. Merci Massimo et Fausto!</b>

Molto buona ma fra le meno eccellenti della serata; abbinata con formaggetta genovese (ottima) e cima genovese (fantastica e imprevista). E’ una birra veramente rara e direi quasi unica, in quanto non la produrranno probabilmente mai più; mi sono scippato la bottiglia infatti. Ribevuta stasera a temperatura meno glaciale e con ottima compagnia; ha mostrato una complessità nuova, floreale, nell’aroma, che ho adorato. Impossibile non alzare il voto.
