A really impressive effort, especially for an Italian brewery since so much of Italy's output is lagers.

Hazy orange in color, a bit of head when pouring but nothing hangs around afterward. Sweet nose; cookies, maybe.
Really quite "viscous"; this has an impressive amount of malt body behind it. The sweetness dominates yet it isn't exactly a sweet beer with the extra alcohol burn in there.
Overall great; I'd definitely buy this again.

75cl bottle courtesy of JustinK, batch # L13003. Very good attempt at a Belgian. Aroma and taste are spot on. Finish is very abrupt. Taste is butterscotch, caramel, toffee with velvety smooth mouthfeel. Nice job, Italy!
