Birra del Borgo Re Ale

Italia! Land of fine foods, and diving cheating cheaters (never forget).

And, it would seem, rather convincing American Pale Ales.

It's a pretty fruity beer this - lots of pineapple going on initially, then resolves into a butterscotch sort of effect with backing bitterness. Really pretty pleasing on the whole, quite quaffable due to the balance, lack of massive bitterness, and nice full mouthfeel.

So not a lot to fault other than the slight lack of excitement.. it's not a 'wow' beer but a solid drop nonetheless. Good start for Italy, looking forward to try some more. 7.5
