330 ml bottle, 6,6%. Golden colour, low to none head. Fruity aroma, with hints of strawberries. Pale bock qualities in the flavour, alcoholic warmth. Not bad.

 

 

Clear gold with thick foamy head. Recedes nicely to a thin line. Sweet malts and cereal flavours. Aroma is again along the lines of sweet bread. Low carbonation. I didn’t taste much bitterness. Not bad.

 

I am trying this beer in Naples. Poured from a brown 16.9 oz. bottle. Has a dark golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of malts. Taste is a mixture of malts and alcohol. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall not bad, but nothing special.

Bottle. Poured out a clear, golden amber color with a small, white head of foam. It smelled of toasted caramel, toffee and floral notes. Fairly malty with sweet caramel and a subtle bitterness.

 

L- A good rich golden colour. Crystal clear. Pours with 1Cm off-white head, slowly reducing to lacing. Some rising CO2 continues.
S- A tiny bit of hops, but to find just that I'm almost vacuuming up beer through my nose.
T- Quite dry on the front, richer in the middle as the alcohol comes through, and dry again into the finish. That's it for me, there isn't great complexity to this. Or as my (occasional beer drinker) wife said 'The alcohol is like a Belgian monastic beer (her fav is 'Tripel Karmeliet'), but it doesn't come with that same depth of flavour at all'.
M- They've done a decent job, there's no missing it's not messing about on the alcohol level. The flavours do pretty much balance against it.
O- It's strong and there is no missing that, but it's not particularly complex nor interesting.
Bought from Waitrose, London. The bottle has changed from the above pic; it's now closer to the shape of a champagne bottle. BB: '06/19 Padova L8 169 1 09'
