At the end of each stage of Giro d'Italia, the leader is awarded the Maglia Rosa (pink jersey), when all our rider really wants is a cold, refreshing pilsner. So, whether you’ve just finished the last stage of the Giro d'Italia, or you took a stroll on College Street from Bathurst to Shaw, this pilsner fits. Auguri! Salute!

Another beer purchase from my sister-in-law.

An "italian pilsner". Not a style yet added on BA.

Appearance - Pours a straw gold with four fingers of frothy white head.

Smell - grassy, earthy, and floral hops, biscuity and grainy malts, sweet aromas, lemon, and earthy yeast.

Taste - bold grassy, earthy, and floral hops upfront. The biscuity and grainy malts come through next followed by the lemon. The earthy yeast rounds out the brew.

Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes sticky alongside a pleasant bitterness from the hops.

Overall - A pleasant drinking pilsner with a nice bitter finish that makes for a refreshing tipple.
