Sour pit fruit aroma, and some malt, hazy, red/orange, pours a small custard head. Taste of apricot and red plum, is softer than the aroma, with some spicey malt @ la Belgian, some citrus. Medium bodied, pleasantly sweet and sour, tongue tingle, This offering reminds me of a much lighter version of a Belgian red. Very nice.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Deep orange body, slightly hazy. Short-lived white head. Smell is rather weak; fruity (orange) and slightly hoppy. Mellow and round malt balanced by a delicate sourness. Yeasty tarty notes may remind of belgian ales, but it’s probably the hops which give the brew a definite English character. Body is medium, drinkability is excellent. Finish is not quite as bold and bitter as I would have liked, but, this is still a very interesting and well-balanced ale, and something you usually don’t expect from Sicily. Good work, P.B.

La birre si presenta con un aroma di frumento e malto, con note di lievito. Il gusto è maltato, leggermente acidulo, con una luppolatura delicata, tipica delle birre inglesi. Sul finale l’amaro sale di tono.

Bottle (330ml). Shared with blankboy, tupalev, Dave B, and R++ - courtesty of R. Poured cloudy bubbly orange with a small off-white fizzy head. Slightly soapy and grainy malt and grain aroma, with souri fruity yeast; somewhat vegetal. Flavour was much nicer, citrusy malt and mild UK slightly pungent hops - quite bitter on the finish and aftertaste, with a flat, sticky mouthfeel - the taste was fine, didn’t like the smell at all.

Bottle shared with Blankboy and Hogtown Harry and company, thanks R! Deep dark yellow, small white head. Funky sour malt aroma. Dry sour malt taste. Yeasty. Lemon aftertaste. Ok, not great, but neat to try!

Bottle shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev, R. & more -- courtesy of R. Pours a cloudy orange-amber with a small diminishing off-white head. Aroma of funky hops and sour fruit. Sweet flavour follows the aroma and has a boozy and quite bitter aftertaste. Decent but not for me.

Amber color. Simple Amber Ale, with some residual sweetness and a vegetable touch. Quite high ending bitterness, and an alcohol touch.
