Birra Morena 1999 Non Filtrata
Tarricone S.p.A.

Copenhagen 10/7 2022. 33 cl small chubby bottle from Meny, Rotunden, Hellerup. White text heavy label telling me that this beer is non filtrata and based on 100 % Italian malts.

Pours unclear golden yellow with some clumps of yeast whirling about. mid-sized white head. Settles as thin layer of foam struggling to cover the surface of the beer. Clinging to the sides of the glass. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is moderately intense with a sweet, malty odor mingling with a bit of fresh grass and citrus fruit. Sweet pale malts, bread and cardboard. White sugar. Lemon and metal.

Strong carbonation. Thin, watery, lively and tingling texture.

Flavor is moderately intense with a medium strong sweetness followed by a stronger, rough bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter and lingers for a bit. Finish is dry.

A bit generic Pale Lager with a rathe bitter finish.

330 ml bottle, from Vinmonopolet, Nettbutikken. ABV is 4.8%. Golden colour, moderate white head. Aroma of malts and wort, also notes of grassy and herbal hops. Malty flavour, some sweetness, noticeable herbal and sharp-ish bittering hops in the finish.
