consumed at the san siro stadium in milan, along with some very terrible food-truck food. i mean, what is there to say. it’s ungood. sweet, white bread malt flavour, and an array of astringent flavours, metallic, skunky, nail-polish-remover-y. medium carbonation and medium body. very bad.

I found a can in the off license neary the chippy so thought I’d follow Steve from Beer Nouveau & treat it like Barleywine
Pours a crystal clear golden body with really good white head
Aroma is butterscotch
Flavour is sweet toffee and it’s really pleasant till a metallic aftertaste

Decent fizzy head, clear tan color
Nose a bit macro lager, unfermentables, touch skunky, mild lager notes quite sweet and little fruity
Taste more sweet malts, plenty of sweet and syrupy, little lager notes, fruity, little alcohol, candy sugar syrup, touch skunky and unfermentables
Mouth syrupy sticky sweet med, decent carb

I saw this a lot in Rome and finally ordered it out of pure curiosity.
Pours a clear golden color, quickly dissipating head and that leaves a thin ring.
The aroma is all about the alcohol. Putting it up to my nose it smells like vodka. There is some cereal grain in the aroma, however, it's mostly overshadowed by the booze.
The taste can be described as a sticky, gooey and sweet cereal grain. The alcohol, again vodka, is all over the place.
The body is medium but as it is tough to get through this one, hard to drink, especially as it warms.
This is like a European malt liquor. The only benefit I can see is if you want a quick cheap buzz as long as it's drunk ice cold. Personally, those are not qualities I seek in a brew.
