Menabrea 150° Anniversario Strong

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

Pours a clear pale golden with a fluffy white heas. Clean nose, touch of grass, touch of hop and a little alcohol present. The initial grassy flavour quickly gives way to a herb hop bitterness, with lemon and grapefruit to sweeten slightly before a smooth malt flavourand a touch pf vanilla to finish. Hop and vanilla are left lingering on the palate, very drinkable and quite complex despite average aroma.

Degustata da bottiglia da 33cl. Aspetto biondo limpido con schiuma cremosa. Profumo intenso, aromi di malto e leggermente luppolata. Di buon corpo e ben equilibrata.

Bottle bought in Venice. Malty, flowery, fruity. Hoppy finish. Decent beer, as with the others from this brewery.

A Malt Liquor brewed by Menabrea (Forst). Speciality double malt strong lager beer produced by deep fermentation.

Dark yellow colour, lager malt nose, deep malt flavour that quite lagery and a little sweet.

Taster at DØ, Aarhus Syd, DK. Bottled, 171208. Golden with small head. Aroma is sweet with hay notes. Flavor is citric with some malt and spices

Tasted 10/01/2008. 330ml bottle from Regional Wines and Spirits. Pours a brilliant pale gold with a lingering pure white head. The nose and flavour both exhibit honey-like malt sweetness, significant herbal and spicy noble hop characteristics and a firm minty bitterness, tending a little metallic. Medium weight and carbonation, appropriately. Good for what it is but nothing on what it should be. Deep fermentation isn’t doing all that much for me.

Too strong but well brewed. like the malty taste although the aroma is a little bitter, like a IPA perhaps.
