Alla spina a Ronco alla Festa della Birra; la volevo assaggiare e costava poco (2.50€ da 40cl); ho fatto bene a pagarla poco: una brodaglia in cui il sentore alcolico domina su tutto il resto. Da bere finché è fredda, perché più si riscalda, peggio è.

On tap, well balanced strong lager, dark golden colour, light malt aroma with hops presence, tipical bitter finish, more alcoholic than expected from tasting (I’ve read it after).

tap in Rome or Florence, I forget, but it was at the same place I got the Red on tap. The menu listed the abv as 8%. This beer pours golden with a medium sized head and good lacing. It has a sugary malt aroma with a hint of citrus. The flavor is very sweet with just a little hops in there. The high alcohol is buried under all that sweetness. I actually thought this was an enjoyable if simple strong lager.

Rome - Pours gold/amber, has a light hoppy, sweet and slightly fruity nose. Tastes pretty good, is hoppy with a bitter finish, maybe flowers?

A very common Strong Lager, with a too high alcohol impression and high bitterness.
