Menabrea 150° Anniversario Strong

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

A dark yellow beer with a thick whipped cream like head in an off-white color. The aroma is sweet malty - and so is the flavor combined with a slight alcohol note. The mouthfeel is a bit flat.

(On tap) Clear pilsener golden with a handsome, creamy and rather stable head. Malty nose. Soft body with very sweet malt and a slightly sulphurous edge. Very pure. A decent brew. 291005

66 cL bottle. Pours almost clear yellow and golden with a huge white head. Aroma is grassy to hayish hoppy. Malty, light sweet, vague metallic and alcohol flavoured. Bitter and dry grassy into a dry finish. Simple.

[Bottled] Clear golden, creamy head. Sugary nose. Sweet and soft with medium body. A good malt character is not backed by any sort of flavour. Instead it just passes by into a vague sweet fininsh.

Bottle, 6.5%. Mild grainy aroma. Clear golden colour. Good stable head, a bit plasticky. The flavour is also grainy, with a bit of sourness. Has a little alcohol note. Quite clean, but also quite uninteresting.

Bottled (thanks mabjork). Pale golden colour with small white head. Aroma is quite sweet malts with some mild toffeeish hints. Flavour is very much the same. Sweetish sour aftertaste.
