Brewed by Menabrea (Forst)
Style: Pale Lager
Biella, Italy

Clear blond coloured beer with small white head and medium carbonation. Spicy hoppy and herby aroma. Full palate. Finish is herby bitter and slightly sweet.

Clear golden blond coloured beer with lots of carbonation and an average white head. Fruity hoppy and grassy aroma. Medium to full palate. Finish is bitter sweet hoppy. A rather nice lager.

660 ml bottle. A clear pale blonde beer with a decent and enough persistent white head. The aroma is lightly malty with notes of cereals and a light herbal touch. The flavour has a medium sweetness and some grassy hops. Medium body, lively carbonation, dry finish with almost medium bitterness. Pretty decent for an industrial Italian beer, but doesn’t differentiate itself from milion of other lagers.

Standard pale gold pour with a fizzy white head. Sweet aroma of corn and light malt. Flavor is similar, though seemingly a little skunky on the finish. No big deal.

Bottle, 330ml. My uncle recently came back from Italy and brought with him back a few beers for me. Fluffy white head atop a very pale golden body. A slightly malty and corny aroma. Fairly soft on the palate but quite enjoyable, it suits the style of beer quite well.

Bottle, 33cl. Golde, white foam. Good Supermarket’s lager. Sweet malt in aroma, light bitter in the end.

Al bar fuori dalla stazione a Milano, 33cl - lasciamo perdere il prezzo da furto (mentre al supermarket si trova a 1 euro circa) - aroma molto cerealoso, maltato, dolcino; sapore leggero e insipido con un po’ di secchezza nel finale giusto per far presenza. "Sa di vecchio" disse qualcuno; forse è la sua caratteristica più evidente. Tra le lager italiane da supermercato, comunque, rimane discreta.

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of fiulijn. Clear, golden with a dense, white head. Clean, malty nose. Medium body, lightly sweet malts and a somewhat floral hopping before a rather bitter finish. A very decent lager. 180907
