A - Light amber. Fine and quite persistent beige foam. It's a bitter ale beer with a good level of foam and alcohol so i think that It seems to be a Extra Special Bitter.
S - A complex bouquet of smells. Over all fruity (red fruit, marmalade and fruit in syrup). An important level of malt sweetness (candy). Also citrus and a little of rosted. Some floreal note.
T - A little of acidity. In opposity to the smell, there's the herbaceous of the hop.
M - Dry and bitter in the final. There are sensations all to discover!!
D - Very interesting beer!! I surely want to drink another!!

On cask at BQ, Milan. 4.8% ABV.
Pours dark garnet with steady off white froth that clumps. Fruitcake on the nose with a cheesy yeast quality. Port and Ryvita malts with cranberry and Campari hops. Bitter linger. Smooth, round and light to medium.
Brighter than most English bitter. Solid cask ale.
Again, why do so many Italian beers show as retired when they're not?

Dark cheery red color, with some floating things. Decent foam, creamy, even too much for a bitter.
Citrus fruitness over all in the smell, with a malty background, and a light caramel.
The taste is a little tart, with some citron. Quite citric.
Some hop dryiness.
Not too bad, but a little monotone.
In cask (handpump) it was much better.
