3.66/5  rDev -0.3%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 3.75
L: Poured from a bottle to a pint glass. Had a light yellow color and a cloudy consistency. Some sediment. There was a creamy, fairly long-lasting head. Below average lacing.

S: A decent, if somewhat uninteresting, aroma of malt, a little bit of hops, light citrus, and a bit of fruitiness.

T: Tasted of a mild amount of hops (mostly in the finish), a whole bunch of pale malt (the dominant feature), a fair shot of citrus fruit (lemon), and some other fruit (peaches, mostly). Nothing overly special with the flavor here, with a whole lot of malt presiding over everything. Not bad, but not a memorable flavor.

F: A good amount of carbonation with a lively finish. Light-bodied.

O: I bought this beer mostly out of curiosity. Turns out it's okay, but not overly interesting. Worth a look, possibly.

750 mL big cap bottle, poured into stemmed empire style glasses. Golden straw color, and big foamy white head on the beer. Dry, sparkling, crisp and refreshing smells and flavors coming from this beer. Good summer BBQ beer.

750ml white foil-capped bottle. Made with the addition of sea salt and sugar, a sort of 'terroir' for this region of Italy, apparently.

This beer pours a hazy, pale golden straw colour, with a roiling morass of rising puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly bone-white head, which leaves some flock of birds lace around the glass as it slowly sinks away.

It smells of bready, grainy pale malt, white saltine crackers, soft drupe fruit notes, yeasty dough, a celery-like vegetal character, and herbal, leafy, and grassy hops. The taste is quite consistent - grainy, doughy pale malt, a heightened orchard fruitiness (pear, peach, and apple), more salted celery, a mild hard water flintiness (duh), and herbal, floral, and leafy hops.

The carbonation is fairly benign in its lackadaisical frothiness, but somehow supportive all the same, the body a sturdy medium weight, and generally smooth, but with a slight mineral bite. It finishes off-dry, the grainy pale malt persisting, while the fruitiness dims, and that Bloody Caesar rim essence continues to tickle my predisposed palate.

Another tasty and engaging brew from this new to me Italian concern. Used judiciously, the sea salt does more than I thought it would, enhancing or changing flavours as it is wont to do. Mostly a well-made blonde ale, the extra little bits providing a certain image in my mind of a day well spent wasting time on the Adriatic seaside.
